FORT LEE, Virginia- Soldiers tour the U.S. Army Ordnance Training Support Facility (TSF), the first Training Support Facility of the U.S. Army. The Ordnance TSF houses collections from Aberdeen Proving Ground, Redstone Arsenal, Picatinny Arsenal, and Watervliet Arsenal. These collections were moved and consolidated as a result of Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) 2005 decisions. The mission of the U.S. Army Ordnance Training Support Facility is to support Soldier training, education, leader development and to facilitate the preservation of historically significant artifacts and equipment from the colonial period to the present for research and development. The collection comprise obsolete, prototype, experimental, first production, and field modified foreign and American materiel that relate to the history of the U.S. Army Ordnance Corps and the evolution and development of American Military Ordnance materiel. Using this collection, the Ordnance TSF will introduce Soldiers to the history, heritage, and pride of the U.S. Army and Ordnance Corps, building on the Army Profession and highlighting the service’s traditions,
heritage and values. The U.S. Army Ordnance TSF is not a replacement for a public accessible museum; the facility is a mission-essential training requirement that directly supports TRADOC’s core function of education.
