Fort
Huachuca is located in the southeastern corner of Arizona. It
is surrounded by Cochise County and the local townships of
Sierra Vista, Hereford, and Huachuca City. It is approximately
one hour south of Tucson. It is a military community with a
small town ambience encased by scenic vistas. The cost of
living is moderately high. The base operator's phone number is
520-533-2330.
History
Fort Huachuca is the product of the Indian War of the 1870s
and 1880s. In February 1877, Col August V. Kautz, commander of
the Department of Arizona, ordered that a camp be established
in the Huachuca Mountain. The Fort was the home of the 10th
Cavalry "Buffalo Soldiers" for 20 years and was replaced by
the 25th Infantry Regiment in 1933. Presently, Fort Huachuca
houses the U.S. Army Intelligence Center, and the U.S. Army's
Network Enterprise Technology Command.
