Congress appropriated $200,000 for a school at, Fort Riley, Kansas, [1] to instruct enlisted men in cavalry and, light artillery, but five years went by before the Cavalry and, Light Artillery School was formally established and moved from, Fort Leavenworth. The Fort Riley post hospital, built in 1855,, was remodeled in 1890 and became the headquarters and home for, the school. In the years that followed, the school changed, names. It was called the Mounted Service School from 1907 until, World War I, when instruction ended for the duration of the, war. In 1919, the Cavalry School took its place and continued, until October 1946. With the final disposition of tactical, cavalry horses in March 1947, the Army ended all training and, educational programs dealing with mounted troops. With the, closure of the cavalry school, a new educational function, continued on 1 November 1946 at Fort Riley with the Ground, General School, training newly commissioned officers in basic, military subjects. After 1950, it continued as the Army General, School until May 1955, when Fort Riley's education and training, mission ended as it became the headquarters for the U. S. 1st, Infantry Division."
