Unit 4 proposal focus

All of the Armor and Cavalry exhibits need to stay at Fort Knox Patton Museum and as a result should not go to Fort Benning Georgia. Starting in 2010, over 90% of the Armor and Cavalry exhibits were removed from the Fort Knox Patton museum and consequently were either placed in storage awaiting shipment to Fort Benning Georgia, or have already shipped. The Army’s explanation is that the Armor and Cavalry Center which was formerly at Fort Knox has now moved to Fort Benning Georgia, which is already the home of the United States Infantry. The Tanks at the Patton Museum have never been connected to the Armor Center in the first place, so there is no reason that they should go with the Armor Center to Georgia. The Cavalry and Armor Exhibits have been at the Patton Museum at Fort Knox since its opening in 1949, countless volunteer hours and personal donations from Kentuckians have been spent to preserve the exhibits. Moving any of the exhibits to Fort Benning which is already the home of infantry and which previously had no real connection to Armor or Cavalry is not fair to Kentuckians, veterans and enthusiasts who have enjoyed the countless exhibits for over 60 years now. I strongly recommend that the exhibits be moved back to Fort Knox, the original home of Cavalry and Armor as soon as possible.
