Fort Gordon Preparedness Exercise Week-long exercise involves alarms, extra ID checks FORT GORDON, Ga. – The Fort Gordon Garrison will conduct its annual all-hazards-response-exercise, Viper Gold, Monday, March 13 through Friday, March 17. During the exercise, visitors and workers can expect, and plan for, increased security measures and potential delays while entering and exiting the installation. Additionally, there will be exercise scenarios occurring at various locations on the installation designed to exercise emergency preparedness and response capabilities. Those on and off the installation may hear warning sirens and announcements – each will be prefaced with ‘Exercise – Exercise – Exercise’. “It’s imperative that we test our capabilities periodically to ensure we are ready to meet the challenges that come with Army training,” said Col. Reginald Evans, Garrison Commander. “I ask that our Army family be patient through this exercise and be vigilant and report any suspicious activity.” All Fort Gordon personnel and community members should be extra vigilant during the exercise and aware of the heightened security measures. If you are on the installation and see suspicious activity, or what you believe is an emergency, please do not hesitate to call 911 – as long as these calls are placed on Fort Gordon they will be routed to the Fort Gordon 911-Call Center where staff will be staged to intervene if the incident is exercise related; exercise or real-world calling 911 is the right answer if you see something concerning and potentially dangerous. Stay connected and informed by following the Fort Gordon Garrison Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/ftgordonga) and, if you work on the installation and have a Common Access Card, by enrolling in the Alert Mass Warning Notification System: https://alert.csd.disa.mil.

Become a part of history! The future Fort Eisenhower is seeking CSRA graphic artists and designers to support post transformation. FORT GORDON, Ga. – The Cyber Center of Excellence (CCoE) leadership is asking the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA) community for help with creating a new logo, as the installation prepares for its transformation from Fort Gordon to Fort Eisenhower. Fort Gordon is one of nine Army installations being renamed following an 18-month process culminating in the Congressional Naming Commission submitting final naming recommendations to the Department of Defense (DoD) on Oct. 1, 2022. On Oct. 6, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin announced that the DoD accepted the Commission’s final recommendations, including the renaming of Fort Gordon to Fort Eisenhower. “The name Fort Eisenhower is a great choice for Fort Gordon,” said CCoE and Fort Gordon Commanding General, Maj. Gen. Paul Stanton. “General Eisenhower was not only an exemplary citizen and leader, but he was also a devout golf enthusiast with a great respect and admiration for the greater Augusta area. Our military installations are designed to commemorate and reflect the courage, valor and rich diversity of our military heroes and as the only five-star U.S. Army General who served as the Supreme Allied Commander during WWII and as President of the United States, we are proud rename this post in his honor.” With the new name comes the need for a new logo. The Cyber Center of Excellence is asking interested community members to submit logo designs for consideration no later than April 29, 2023.  We are looking for a creative and unique logo that represents its namesake and our multi-mission, multi-service military installation.
