3/124th Regiment, IO-TASS Battalion
Information Operations Training Battalion
The 3/124th Regiment, IO-TASS Battalion information operations center is run in collaboration with Norwich University, the nation's oldest private military college. The Vermont National Guard will become home to the Armory of the Future, an $8.3 million state-of-the-art armory which will house the latest communications technology and military training equipment. The 76,000 square-foot Norwich Armory/National Guard Regional Technology Center, the first of its kind in the country, is being viewed as a prototype by the National Guard Bureau, a model which they hope to emulate in other military construction projects around the country in years ahead. The Norwich armory will be home to the Vermont National Guard's Information Operations battalion, Norwich ROTC cadets, and will provide a distance learning center for community leaders. Other units housed in the building will be Headquarters 86th Armored Brigade, Detachment 1, 42nd Military Police Company, a platoon from the 2-172nd Armor Battalion, a platoon from the 3-172nd Infantry (Mountain) Battalion, and one section from the 1-86th Field Artillery. The Norwich Armory of the Future will house approximately $5.5 million in military training simulators and information operations computer equipment.
