In support of the recent guidance provided by the President, the U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center (USAHEC) is postponing public gathering events, such as our lectures, thru 30 April 2020. In addition, our Visitor and Education Center and the Ridgway Hall Research Center are closed to the public, but will remain open for US Army War College Faculty and Students.

Our trail and outside exhibits remain open to the public. We ask that if you do walk the trail, we encourage all to adhere to the recommended social distancing guidelines.

USAHEC will continue to evaluate future events and provide timely input reference their status. Please watch our social media pages and our website for future updates.

USAHEC online services including our search engine, digital materials, educational tool boxes, podcasts, and YouTube products will remain available for our users.

We are going through some exciting changes at the U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center to make our collections more available online. The USAHEC is undertaking a large-scale digitization project including many of our manuscripts, photographs, audio-visual, artifact, and other collections. There will be times that collections are not available due to the digitization process..

We also have a new search interface that will integrate the collections of the U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center into one search: books, manuscripts, audio-visual materials, art, weapons, uniforms, and more! Please note that during our time of transition, the search system may not show all collections available to researchers. Please contact our Reference Desk, 717-245-3949, for assistance. We ask for your patience as we strive to meet the needs of all of our patrons.
