The Savannah district managed and executed the renovation of the Maneuver Center of Excellence (MCOE) Headquarters at Fort Benning, Ga. The U.S. Army Armor School, formerly headquartered at Fort Knox, Ky., moved to a co-located headquarters with the Infantry School at Fort Benning, Ga., creating the Maneuver Center of Excellence. The renovation was the largest in the Army at $168 million.
