Approved for construction in July, 1941, Fort Gordon was originally called Camp Gordon in honor of John Brown Gordon, who was a major general in the Confederate army, a Georgia governor, a U.S. senator, and a businessman. On March 21, 1956, the post was renamed Fort Gordon.
Fort Gordon trains more military personnel than any other training center of the Army.
