Fort Omaha, in North Omaha NE, was first established as Sherman Barracks in 1868. Later its name was changed to Fort Omaha in 1878. Later, as the needs of the Army grew, it was decided to move the operations to a new facility in Bellevue NE. The post was closed in 1896. Since then it has been used as training, recruiting and administrative facility. It is now home to Metropolitan Community College.
