Brig. Gen. Sean Crockett highlights cadet training surge at Fort Knox, announces 9/11 remembrance
Summary
Brig. Gen. Sean Crockett said Fort Knox has surged for cadet summer training — bringing nearly 7,000 cadets and boosting post population by about 10,000 — thanked garrison staff for flood recovery, and announced a 9/11 remembrance at the Patton Museum at 9 a.m.
Brigadier General Sean Crockett, acting commander of U.S. Army Cadet Command and Fort Knox, told attendees that cadet summer training has markedly raised post traffic and services. “We bring almost 7,000 cadets here every year for the largest annual training event the Army does,” Crockett said, noting the post population can swell by about 10,000 between June and August and asking for residents’ patience with crowded facilities.
Crockett thanked garrison and support agencies for recovery work after early-July flooding and invited the community to a 25th-anniversary 9/11 remembrance at the Patton Museum. “We are gonna do a 9 11 remembrance ceremony… at the Patton Museum at 9AM on 09:11,” he said, adding that details will be released by the garrison. He closed by encouraging attendance and community support for upcoming remembrance events.
