“Retired Gen. Stanley McChrystal toured the National Infantry Museum for the first time last month.  And he walked away impressed with the six-year-old, $110 million facility located in South Columbus on the edge of Fort Benning…”

Excerpt: “McChrystal, walked out of the museum with two insights about the facility and its mission.

“One, it captures our history,” he said. “And it captures the culture of the Last 100 Yards, which the Infantry embodies. But it is also a venue. I didn’t realize it was a place where changes of command would occur, where graduations would occur where Infantry and Armor could come together. It is a gathering place that brings us closer together as a community.”
