The
United States Army Command and General Staff College (
CGSC or, obsolete,
USACGSC) at
Fort Leavenworth,
Kansas, is a
graduate school for
United States Army and sister service officers, interagency representatives, and international military officers. The college was established in 1881 by
William Tecumseh Sherman as the
School of Application for Infantry and Cavalry, (later simply the Infantry and Cavalry School), a training school for
infantry and
cavalry officers. In 1907 it changed its title to the
School of the Line. The curriculum expanded throughout
World War I,
World War II, the Korean War, and the
Vietnam War and continues to adapt to include lessons learned from current conflicts.
