  • With more than $1.6 billion slated for construction, Fort Gordon hosts the largest military construction program in the continental United States and was designated as a Mega Program. As the Army’s agent for military construction in Georgia, the Savannah District oversees the entire spectrum of the transformation.

    I was born at Fort Gordon. My father was stationed there. My family resided in a small town in the outkirts of Augusta called Harlem, bithplace of Oliver Hardy. I have learned from my oldest brother that they have decided to rename it Fort Eisenhower. There goes my birthplace and history.

    I attended AIT at Fort Gordon in the 1980's. I will always value my time and training there. The Signal Towers remain iconic in my mindset, but progress is inevitable. All of my best in your endeavors.❤🇺🇸❤

    Wow, I took classes for 10 month at that signal tower during 1970-1971. I believe we were the first ones to move in to the brand new red brick quarters/barracks. "Rainy Night in Georgia" was a big hit in 1970 but during my 10 month stay, it never rained but just had a snow flurry one morning. Also, "Feliz Navida" by Jose Feliciano was a big hit and was blasting out of the boom box day and night. I swear I heard that song few thousand times and I even recorded both "Rainy Night in Georgia" and Feliz Navida" in one of my albums. Great memories...

    Fort Gordon has changed dramatically. I went there for basic training and AIT in 1977 through 1978. I retired from there in 1999. Signal Towers is going away. I had signal tower duty there a couple of times. It has become a totally different kind of military base. It has always been a multi service base. This transformation really makes it a DOD Agency for all of the services and US Government Agencies.

    No more Signal Towers? Say it ain't so. I went to Officers Signal School at Fort Gordon starting in September 1976. Nice to see change coming.

    I went to AIT there for 36c telephone operator and lineman. I couldn’t believe what I got myself into when we had switchboard training. They were the really old switchboards that you put pug in and out and ring the phone I was going to Germany so I got extra training on computer switchboards. When I got to Germany one other person I went to AIT with was in the Battalion. I was put in charge of setting up the switchboards for every platoon in 3 companies because they didn’t know how to set up the computer.

    As a former soldier station at Ft. Gordon I would strongly advise against using white for surfaces in any building on this particular base unless you want to spend a good portion of your budget on cleaning staff or for it to be repainted.

    I went to Military Police school in the spring of 1972 at what I believe was called Brimms Barracks. I left in early Aug after being held over for some time and was sent to Kagnew Station which was in Ethiopia or Eretria which is in Africa
