 Major General J. H. Cushman, Commander,
US Army Combined Arms Center
Fort Leavenworth was established and grew with the expansion of
the West in the early 1800's. The Fort, with its traditions and
contributions, has helped to mold the character and point the
direction for countless military leaders of the United States and her
Allies.
As an observer you will see the United States Army Command and
General Staff College, its students exposed to the latest thinking and
finest instruction, and the Combined Arms Combat Developments
Activity whose skilled and dedicated professionals perform the com-
plex, challenging, and vital role in the development of tomorrow's
Army. Yet, it is the entire Fort Leavenworth community that works
together to accomplish its assigned missions. The US Army Medical
Department Activity, the United States Disciplinary Barracks, and
the Mid-West Telecommunications Center are all integral parts of
the Combined Arms Center and Fort Leavenworth. But most of all
it is people, military and civilian, working in all Post activities to
make individual and joint contributions to support a modern Army
with worldwide commitments.
As you visit, I welcome you to share with us your own expertise and
to absorb the knowledge and history that is the Combined Arms
Center.

HISTORIC FORT LEAVENWORTH
Fort Leavenworth was established on 8 May 1827 by Colonel
Henry Leavenworth and 188 officers and men of the 3rd Infantry
Regiment who had journeyed by keelboat up the Missouri River
from Jefferson Barracks at St. Louis. Colonel Leavenworth was
ordered by the War Department to establish a fort to protect
the wagon trains proceeding to New Mexico along the Santa Fe
Trail, and to maintain peace among the Indians.
FORT LEAVENWORTH
Approved For Release 2003/05/08 : CIA-RDP80R01731 R002000130016-3
 The fort was to be located on the left, or east, bank of the
Missouri within 20 miles of the mouth of the Little Platte River.
Noting that the east bank of the river was low and marshy, Colo-
nel Leavenworth chose instead to establish the fort atop the bluffs
on the west bank. His decision was later approved by the War
Department and the post was officially named Cantonment
Leavenworth. In 1830 "Cantonment" was changed to "Fort."
Fort Leavenworth became one of the principal outposts of
United States authority in what was then considered to be the
West. In the 1830's the Fort was the starting point for explora-
tion parties and annual military expeditions to the Indian tribes.
By the 1840's travel to California and Oregon had begun and
thousands of wagons passed through the Post. The levee was
busy with settlers and immigrants arriving for the great trek.
Supplies to support the wagon trains and military expeditions
came up the river in vast quantities.
The Mexican War in 1846 made Fort Leavenworth an army
headquarters. Several regiments were raised here to march over-
land to battle in Mexico and California. During the Civil War,
nearby Camp Lincoln mustered great numbers of volunteers into
Union Service. In 1864 Fort Sully, a series of earthworks, was
constructed on the hill overlooking the National Cemetery to
protect the Post and its arsenal from an invading force under
Confederate General Sterling Price. Price was turned back at
the Battle of Westport, present Kansas City.
Fort Leavenworth continued to play an important role as a
headquarters and supply base during the Indian Wars which
followed, and at one time General George Armstrong Custer dnd
the Seventh US Cavalry were stationed here. The later history of
the Fort revolves around the Command and General Staff College.
As a major historical site Fort Leavenworth has seen many
firsts-it is the first continuously occupied settlement in Kansas;
the first regiment of US cavalry, the 1st Dragoons, was organized
here in 1833; the first temporary capital of Kansas Territory
was located here; Major Riley, the post commander in 1829 was
the first to use oxen to haul wagons over long distances and set
the pattern of immigration. The oldest existing house in Kansas
is on the Post. And from here have gone soldiers to fight in eight
wars.

US ARMY
COMMAND AND GENERAL
STAFF COLLEGE
The U.S. Army Command and General Staff College is pri-
marily an educational institution. Its program is designed to
produce graduates who are competent military problem solvers.
The emphasis is on career development for the officers' future
duties as a senior commander or staff officer.
The USACGSC was founded in 1881 as the School of Ap-
plication for Infantry and Cavalry. In 1907, its title was changed
to the Army School of the Line; in 1922, to the General Service
Schools ; and in 1929, to the Command and General Staff School.
Redesignated the U.S. Army Command and General Staff
College in 1947, the oldest of the Army's advanced schools is ac-
tually the keystone of the Army educational system. It serves
both as a reward and as a stepping stone for further advance-
ment for all Army officers who, through their performance of
duty, have clearly demonstrated their potential for assignment
to high command or staff positions.
The USACGSC is located in Bell Hall on historic Arsenal
Hill at Fort Leavenworth, overlooking the Missouri River. The
building contains 318,848 square feet of floor space designed in
the shape of the figure four. It has five basic wings: a three-
story office unit, an auditorium, two classroom wings, and a fa-
cilities wing containing a smaller auditorium and a library. The
basement contains additional offices, a cafeteria and Post Ex-
change outlet, book store, small barber shop and instructional
support facilities. The three-story office wing contains 215 offices
of modern design, eight conference rooms, eight clerical rooms,
and a 12-station language laboratory.
The classroom wings contain a total of 24 classrooms accom-
modating an average of 56 students each. Modern classroom fa-
cilities and the latest in audio-visual aids permit great flexibility
in teaching methods and presentation of instruction.
Coordination of matters that affect all departments is
achieved by normal coordination between departments, the staff,
and the faculty board.

The Combined Arms Combat Developments Activity (CAC-
DA) is the most recent in a succession of combat developments
organizations at Fort Leavenworth. CACDA traces its origins
to the USACDC Combined Arms Group which was established
here in 1962. The present structure emerged on 1 March 1973.
On that date, the Combined Arms Center (CAC) was established
at Fort Leavenworth and CACDA was activated simultaneously
as one of the Center's major activities.
CACDA's task is to insure that the fighting man is provided
with the best tactics, equipment and support that experience, in-
telligence, and available resources can produce. CACDA devel-
ops, coordinates and integrates combat developments actions for
doctrine, organization and materiel pertaining to combat, com-
bat support, and command and control systems of divisions and
corps. In performing its mission, CACDA exercises operational
control over the U.S. Army Nuclear Agency located at Fort
Bliss, Texas.
CACDA occupies Sheridan Hall, Grant Hall, part of Sher-
man Hall, and three smaller buildings at Fort Leavenworth. The
organization consists of four staff directorates and three sup-
porting offices.

The Concepts and Force Design Directorate has the exper-
tise for developing doctrinal concepts and force designs relating
to separate brigades, divisions and corps. It is responsible for
CACDA actions relating to the problem of airspace control, tac-
tical cover and deception requirements, and all organizational
requirements. Examples of studies undertaken by this Director-
ate are the concept for a new Armored Division, evaluation of
the triple capabilities of the 1st Cavalry Division, and develop-
ment of doctrine and organization for tactical nuclear warfare.
The Directorate of Combat and Combat Support Systems is
responsible for the development of doctrinal concepts and mate-
riel and organizational requirements for combat and combat sup-
port units. These include divisional brigades and armor, infan-
try, field artillery, aviation, air defense, engineer and military
police elements of the Army. The Directorate insures that
studies and materiel developments meet the requirements of the
user in the field. Examples of actions undertaken in this Direc-
torate include development of a Terminal Homing Weapons Pro-
gram, the SAM-D Missile, the utility and attack helicopters, the
main battle tank and the Mechanized Infantry Combat Vehicle.

US ARMY MEDICAL
DEPARTMENT ACTIVITY
MEDDAC consists of three distinct; activities: The Medical Ac-
tivity; the Dental Activity; and the Veterinary Activity.
MEDICAL ACTIVITY
The Medical Activity is located in the United States Munson
Army Hospital. It is the fourth hospital building at Fort Leaven-
worth, Kansas; however, its organization represents a continua-
tion of the original hospital which was the first hospital erected
in the State of Kansas. US Munson Army Hospital was named
in honor of BG Edward L. Munson, who served in the Army
Medical Corps from 1893 to 1932. General Munson made two
significant contributions to military medicine. First, while serv-
ing as an instructor at Fort Leavenworth, he established the
Medical Services and Correspondence School at this installation.
This school was the forerunner of the present day Academy of
Health Sciences, now located at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. Sec-
ond, he designed the Munson Medical Tent which was used for
many years in support of combat forces.
Munson Army Hospital has served the military community
at Fort Leavenworth since March, 1961. Erected at a cost of
$3 million, this medical facility is designed to provide a wide
range of inpatient and outpatient care. Four medical wards with
a combined capacity of 75 beds. provide treatment for patients
requiring hospitalization. Two medical-surgical wards provide
general medical care for non-critical patients. The cardiac and
intensive care ward provides specialized care for critically ill
and post operative patients. This ward is equipped with modern
cardiac monitoring devices and resuscitative equipment. Plans
are currently being developed to :modernize this ward. The
maternity ward, which is equipped with two delivery rooms
and a newborn nursery, provides specialized care for women
and newborn infants. To improve patient comfort, all wards are
equipped with two-way communications systems between rooms
and nurses' stations, individual pillow speakers for radio listen-
ing, and ceiling mounted television sets.
Since construction of the original facility in 1961, Munson
Army Hospital has experienced an increasing demand for out-
patient services. To cope with this increasing demand, the out-
patient facilities were enlarged in 1965. This $114,665 addition
provided additional doctors' offices and treatment areas. To
further augment its outpatient treatment capabilities, Munson
Army Hospital is currently planning another expansion beginning
in fiscal year 1975. Routine outpatient care is currently offered
in the following specialties: general medicine, surgery, urology,
psychiatry, clinical psychology, pediatrics, internal medicine, ear-
nose-throat, ophthalmology, optometry, allergy and physical ther-
apy. In addition, the fully equipped emergency room provides
emergency outpatient care on a 24-hour basis.

Munson Army Hospital also has the responsibility of pro-
viding medical care for inmates of the US Disciplinary Bar-
racks. For this reason, the hospital maintains a clinic inside the
walls of the Disciplinary Barracks to provide routine outpatient
care. Inmates requiring hospitalization are transferred to the
small prison ward located in the hospital.
Munson Army Hospital is proud of the skill and dedication
of all the members of its health care team. In addition, the
hospital is especially proud of its Red Cross Volunteer Service.
Volunteers who participate in this program regularly provide
valuable assistance to both patients and staff by serving as
nursing assistants, laboratory assistants, and receptionists in
the various clinics.
31 R002000130016-3
DENTAL ACTIVITY
The Dental Activity provides dental care to all military per-
sonnel stationed at Fort Leavenworth or assigned to the sur-
rounding area. In addition, due to the designation of Fort
Leavenworth by the Secretary of the Army as a remote area,
dental care is also provided to eligible dependents of military
personnel on a space available basis.
The Dental Activity operates four dental clinics. The main
clinic, the Thomas L. Smith Dental Clinic, is named in honor
of Major General Thomas L. Smith, who served in the Army
Dental Corps from 1916 to 1951. This clinic contains 12 operat-
ing rooms, a prosthodontic laboratory, a diagnostic X-ray fa-
cility, a conference room, a library, and an administration area.
Dental Clinic #2, located in Munson Army Hospital, provides
dental treatment for inpatients of the hospital and assigned
personnel. Dental Clinic #3 is located in the US Disciplinary
Barracks and provides dental care for inmates. Dental Clinic
#4, located in the old hospital building, extends restorative and
oral hygiene care as well as specialty care to orthodontic, perio-
dontic, and pedodontic patients. The preventive dentistry section
is also located in this 12-chair clinic.

VETERINARY ACTIVITY
The Office of the Post Veterinarian is located in Building 88.
This activity is primarily responsible for food inspection pro-
cedures throughout Kansas and Western Missouri, maintenance
of a zoonotic disease control program, and veterinary medical
support to government-owned animals. Any care of privately-
owned pets is directed toward the control of zoonotic and animal
diseases on the reservation. This care includes mandatory pet
registration and immunization, also parasite control, limited
treatment of infectious diseases, and boarding. All care is
provided on an appointment only basis, except for emergencies.
For additional information call 684-4797.
US DISCIPLINARY BARRACKS
The US Disciplinary Barracks is located on the northern
part of Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, and was first established as
a military prison under the War Department in 1874. The build-
ings used had _ formerly been the Quartermaster Depot which
supplied all camps and posts in the West.
The walled area, enclosing the principal facilities of the
USDB, occupies 121/2 acres and is adjoined on the north by a
5-acre recreation field enclosed by a double cyclone fence. Inside
the walled area there are buildings dating from 1840 to 1972.
The main confinement building known locally as the "Castle"
was built by prisoner labor and was completed in 1921. The wall
varies in height from 15 to 41 feet, is 3,580 feet in length, and is
constructed, of stone and cast concrete block. The stone portion. of
the wall was completed in 1879 and the new wall which was built
to enclose the area area occupied by the "Castle" was completed in
1921.
Minimum custody prisoners are housed at the local parolee
unit and at the 600-acre farm located a short distance from the
main confinement facility. These facilities are used for the
training and rehabilitation of military prisoners who live and

In addition to offering academic courses to include college
level classes, the USDB offers training in many vocational sub-
jects among which are automatic data processing, auto body
repair, small appliance repair, TV-radio repair, auto mechanics,
barbering, farming, floriculture, machine shop, photo-tag, print-
ing, shoe repair, furniture repair, sheet metal, upholstery, and
wood-working. On-the-job training is also offered in carpentry,
plumbing, electrical work, masonry, painting, dry cleaning, com-
mercial laundry, food service, and tailoring.
A staff trained in psychiatry, psychology, and social work
offer extensive diagnostic and treatment services to inmates as
required, including individual and group therapy programs. Con-
sultation and training for other staff is also provided in order to
help them deal more effectively with prisoners' problems.
The primary mission of the USDB is to promote the refor-
mation and rehabilitation of prisoners with a view to their
honorable restoration to military duty or return to civilian
life as useful citizens. This is accomplished through the diver-
sified educational and vocational US Army Correctional Program.
The USDB is the principal custodial and rehabilitation facility
utilizing this correctional program which has long been recognized
as one of the most enlightened and progressive penal systems in
the United States.

The outstanding collection of 19th century horse-drawn ve-
hicles for which the Fort Leavenworth Museum has become
famous was originated by the Fort Leavenworth Hunt Club in
the 1920's. In 1937 application was made to the Secretary of War
to establish the Museum as an official United States Army mu-
seum, and approval was granted on 7 February 1938. During
World War II the Museum was put on a standby basis. It was
reopened in 1953 in a former stable building. In April 1959 the
Museum was moved to its present location, Andrews Hall. Since
then an active program has been underway to develop the mili-
tary collections and exhibits, and to expand the Museum's public
services.
The vehicle collection is one of the most comprehensive of
its kind in America. It includes vehicles of all types-military,
family-type carriages, and wagons and coaches used for public
transportation. Most prominent among the collections is the
carriage used by Abraham Lincoln on his visit to Kansas in
December 1859, an Abbott-Downing stagecoach (1838) and a
Conestoga wagon (1790).
The Von Schriltz collection of military miniatures, Regiments
of the World, 1880-1914, is on exhibit in the entrance lobby of the
Museum. Perfectly documented and acclaimed by international
experts in the field of military costume, the finest details of
regimental dress are exquisitely shown on each of the 4,500
miniatures in the colorful display.
FORT LEAVENWORTH MUSEUM
Uniforms and other examples of military dress and equip-
ment of the United States Army officers and men from the earliest
years through World War II are displayed in the main exhibit
areas of the Museum building. Heavy Ordnance pieces on the
Museum grounds date from 1826 to the contemporary Honest
John rocket, and include a rare example of the German V-1
ramjet of World War II. In other areas on Post may be found
four French cast bronze gun tubes of pre-American Revolutionary
times, and four of the famed Civil War cast bronze "Napoleon"
howitzers.
Among Museum oriented activities for young people and
adults are the Historical Society of Fort Leavenworth and the
Musettes, Volunteers in Museum Service. Both are non-profit
private associations of volunteer memberships, and are open to
anyone who wishes to join. Other Museum sponsors include the
Daughters of the United States Army, Fort Leavenworth Chap-
ter, and the Officers' Wives Club of Fort Leavenworth. The
generous continuing support of these groups has enabled expan-
sion of the Museum's military collections and exhibits, and has
substantially furthered Museum objectives in all areas.
There is no charge for admittance to the Museum. Regular
visiting hours are 1000 to 1600 hours, Monday through Saturday;
1200 to 1600 hours, Sundays and holidays. The Museum is closed
New Year's Day, Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Children
under 12 years of age are not admitted to the Museum unless
accompanied by a responsible adult.

FORT LEAVENWORTH
NATIONAL CEMETERY
From the time of its establishment until 1858, Fort Leaven-
worth had two "burying grounds." One a "soldiers' burying
ground," was located near the present site of the Commanding
General's quarters. Another, an "officers' burying ground," was
located near the present site of Wagner Hall. During the period
between 1858 and 1860, the "burying grounds" were discontinued
as such and in 1861 E. T. Carr supervised the reinterment of the
remains from the soldiers' "burying ground" while those from
the officers' "burying ground" were not transferred until some
years later.
Located upon the Fort Leavenworth Military Reservation, the
cemetery as first established contained 2 acres and 4 perches
surrounded by a rough board fence and has grown to the present
36 acres. Though the original was enclosed with a stone wall and
wrought iron fence only the south wall remains standing today.
The first superintendent's lodge was built in 1874. It was de-
stroyed by fire in 1904 and the present lodge was erected where
it now stands in 1905. The gun monuments which originally
stood planted in large stone blocks within nearly circular recesses
on the east and west sides of the cemetery have been removed and
are now mounted in front of the Fort Leavenworth Museum.
After the Civil War, the remains of Union soldiers were
transferred to the National Cemetery from cemeteries in St.
Joseph, Kansas City, old Independence, Missouri, as well as from
the cemetery on the arsenal grounds at Fort Leavenworth. By
1870 the remains of more than 1,200 Union soldiers had been
interred at the National Cemetery. Reinterments from many of
the old abandoned post cemeteries were accomplished over the
years, such as Fort Hays, Kansas, Fort Niobrara, Nebraska, Old
Fort Lyon, Colorado, to name just a very few.
In 1902 the remains of General Henry Leavenworth were
brought to the Fort from Delhi, New York, his boyhood home.
The reinterment in the National Cemetery on Memorial Day was
the occasion for the unveiling of the Leavenworth monument
purchased from funds raised by public subscription. 4 July 1956
saw a rededicating service held and a time capsule was placed
in the monument after which a granite eagle was placed atop
the marker and it stands thus today.
Among other monuments in this cemetery are those of four
officers of the 7th Cavalry, including Captain Tom Custer, brother
of General George Custer, who were killed in the famous Battle
of the Little Big Horn River. Originally five officers were rein-
terred here but in 1909 Lt. McIntosh was removed and now lies
at rest in Arlington.
There are over 14,700 graves in the cemetery, many dating
back to the Indian Wars. The remains of soldiers who fought in
the War of 1812; Mexican, Civil, Spanish, Philippine Wars;
both World Wars; the Korean War and at present 101 men who
gave their lives for our current freedoms in the struggle in Viet-
nam lie at rest here along with those who died in the vicinity
of the Fort and others brought in from the plains along the

Santa Fe and Oregon rails. While known heroes are recorded
by name some 1,500 men cannot be overlooked in nameless graves
marked "Unknown," for they, too, left their mark in the history
of Fort Leavenworth even though their names are known but to
God. The oldest military grave is that of Captain James Allen,
whose remains were interred in 1846 and brought to the present
site from the old "burial ground." Other notables are Generals
Hatch, Bell, Carr, Beach, and Hunt. The Indian also found a
resting place here as well, as is shown by the grave of Shango
Hango, Private, 16th Kansas Vol Cav. John Urquhart, one of the
soldiers who fought in the first battle of the Civil War at Fort
Sumpter is buried here as are seven confederate soldiers killed
in the Battle of Westport (now Kansas City).

Sherman Army Airfield, as the gateway to Fort Leavenworth
and the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College, has
experienced a steady growth in air traffic in the last decade. In
1958, an average of 31 landings and takeoffs were accomplished
daily. In FY 72 the daily average had increased to more than
250. This gain illustrates the increased emphasis on Army Avia-
tion and the important contribution the airfield is making in
support of the Combined Arms Center, and entire community of
Leavenworth.
This airfield, established in 1923 under the jurisdiction of
the US Disciplinary Barracks, was at first intended to be only
an emergency airstrip-an "alfalfa" surface just 1,800 feet long.
Three years later, when the field was, placed under the Command
and General Staff College, a corrugated steel hangar had been
constructed, and the original strip had been enlarged to provide
1,800-foot runways in any direction. In 1936 the airfield was
named in honor of Major William C. Sherman (killed in a plane
crash in 1927), who was an Air Corps instructor at the Command
School. In 1960 a 5,900-foot asphalt runway and a 5,400-foot
cinder runway were constructed which have provided the primary
landing areas to this time.
Since its inception, the primary mission of Sherman Field
has been to provide administrative air transportation for the
Post, College, and all tenant units, and to provide facilities and
equipment for the accomplishment of combat readiness flying
requirements by all assigned and attached aviators.
The Army Aviation Division's aircraft resources are a
combination of twin-engine, fixed-wing command aircraft, single-
engine, fixed-wing aircraft, and observation type helicopters,
which provide the flexibility necessary to accomplish the diverse
and complex missions.
The field is not restricted to purely military traffic. The city
of Leavenworth, through a lease agreement, utilizes a part of
the field for general aviation aircraft. Also, the Fort Leavenworth
Flying Club, consisting of eligible military personnel, their de-
pendents, and civilian employees, utilizes a portion of the field to
park its aircraft and conduct meetings. This club has no official
connection with the military aviation activities of Sherman Army
Airfield, and it is organized solely for the purpose of stimulating
interest in aviation and to provide members the opportunity to
engage in flying as a recreational activity.
