Fort Campbell, a prominent United States Army installation, lies astride the Kentucky-Tennessee border. Established in 1942, it spans an impressive area of over 105,000 acres. Named in honor of Brigadier General William Bowen Campbell, the last Whig Governor of Tennessee, Fort Campbell is home to the 101st Airborne Division, famously known as the "Screaming Eagles," and the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR). This installation is a vital training and deployment hub for the U.S. Army, offering a variety of terrain types for comprehensive military exercises. Additionally, it supports a significant community, including military personnel, their families, and civilian employees, providing a range of services and facilities to meet their needs.
