Experts are studying the cost benefit of keeping tanks at Ft Knox to train Officers and NCO's on the West side of Ft. Knox training area off Route 60. I don't know how long the study will take, but there's a slim chance they could bring some back. They know they had an excellent training area here to begin with.
Heard the same thing this summer. Apparently tank ranges are to small. Lot's of room to fire in down there in Yano.
