I'm TDY at Ft. Knox and I'm trying to find the old BCT stomping grounds...would love to go give Misery, Agony, and Defeat a run for nostalgia. Does anyone remember the address? I haven't been here in 15 years and can't find the address anywhere to save my life...

Are you asking for the address of the hills or the bct training area. If you were armor bct was Disney land which now belong to ROTC, if you just went to bct by itself the old barracks are down the end of Eisenhower and one of the hills is past that not far from the water tower.

I see by the responses that you have the info you need but I just had to relate my own experience pertaining to those lovely hills! I attended BT at Knox in January thru March 1974. So that was some cold ass marching. Was assigned back to Ireland Army Hospital at Knox as a medical corpsman after attending AIT at Fort Sam Houston. After my ETS in May 1977, I married a local girl and went to work at Knox as a civilian employee from 1980 to 2014. In the meantime I joined the KYARNG and spent 22 of those years training at Knox a lot. So I got to know Fort Knox like the back of my hand both contoniment area and range area. My last civilian position was as Chief of the Network & Switch Branch of the NEC. This position was responsible for all the communications facilities on Knox, to include the many many miles of aerial and buried copper and fiber cable. Anyway, my point is that I have traveled almost every area of Fort Knox in some capacity over and over and over again, but thankfully, I'm happy to say with the exception of one time with the KYARNG after basic, I never had to walk those hills again. But I have driven them hundreds of times in POV, GSA pickup & bucket truck, Hummvee, Duce 1/2, M109A4 thru A6, M548, M577 to name a few. Even some of these vehicles struggled traversing these hills.

I was in E Co. 2-46th in 2001. We were in those damn double wide trailers because the barracks were under renovation. I'm trying to find where they were on the current map. I know it was across the street from where the 19D's OSUT Barracks were.

Didn’t see the address in the comments. Would love to archive my address journey throughout the military if I could.

If anyone has the address for D Co 2-46 INF that would be great!

3rd Platoon October 1994 - January 1995, D Co., 2-46
