OUR STORY
The idea for the modern Officer Candidate School for Infantry was conceived in June 1938, when a plan for an officer-training program was submitted to the Chief of Infantry by Brigadier General L. Singleton, Commandant of the Infantry School, Fort Moore, Georgia.

John Ionoff, in attendance at Fort Moore.”
