According to Army Career Tracker, there are several lower enlisted 92G positions at Ft. Knox. Try contacting your branch manager at HRC and see if they could slot you for one.

Cooks are needed everywhere despite that Civilians are taking up the jobs.

The last time I was at Knox the Training Brigades all had civilian mess staff. 194 Armored Brigade was TOE unit, but they deployed a lot.

There are still a few MTOE units on post; the 3rd ESC and an engineer brigade. They will have organic mess sections. Once upon a time, the VIP quarters on base also had higher level cooks assigned. Not sure any more, but you can check. 3 Bde, 1st Inf Div deactivated a few years ago.
The consolidated dining facilities are civilian operated by a company called Red River, but the contractor may have changed.

Good Grief- it is still an active duty Post, thro with out many schools/units there anymore. They still have DFAC, so the will still need cooks- how many is the question.
