School of the Americas

The Ft. Benning, GA, military training center formerly known as the SOA, or School of the Americas, is used to train Latin American soldiers in combat, counterinsurgency and counter-narcotics. Frequently referred to as the “School of the Assassins,” the school is now known as WHISC, or the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation.
