as it was known in 1941, was initiated for infantry and armor training
for World War II soldiers. Fifteen years later in 1956, Camp Gordon was
designated Fort Gordon, making it a permanent military installation and
giving a boost to the local economy in Augusta, Georgia and Columbia
County, Georgia. During these 62 Years, the installation has undergone
numerous reorganizations, but it is known around the world as the "Home
of the Signal Corps."

The CSRA Alliance for Fort Gordon will play a vital role in
helping defend the future of this military installation that is so
critically important to the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA).
CSRA business leaders and elected officials came together on February
14, 2003 to form the Alliance, which will build on the strong bond that
already exists between Fort Gordon and the communities surrounding it.
The primary purpose of the Alliance is to demonstrate the potential
for Fort Gordon to grow existing missions and take on new missions. Additionally, the Alliance promotes economic
development through partnerships capitalizing on the information
technology, communications and medical expertise prominent at Fort
Gordon.
