Tour Overview

Throughout its history, the U.S. Army has continually risen to meet the ever-changing needs of an expanding and increasingly diverse nation. On this walking tour, you’ll be introduced to individuals from across the Army’s history who exemplify this diversity and change. Some explored the western frontier or pioneered aviation; others proved that race and gender were not barriers to effective service; some were enlisted soldiers while others were officers. As you read, reflect on how these individuals and their unique talents expanded the Army’s capabilities to be “ready to deploy, fight, and win decisively against any adversary, anytime and anywhere.”
