Ok. USA
I was in Little Rock today and thought I'd stop by but... It's not there! I haven't been by there since I attended back in 03. The MTU is still there and the old metal building where the school house was is still there. You can see where the sign used to be on the building.
I drove around but didn't see it anywhere. Does anyone have any info on where they moved too? On a side note, it did seem like they have a number of new ranges as well as a bunch of new buildings.

They're in a building right behind the MTU building. Instead of going into MTU's front door, take a left and follow the sidewalk around. It will take you to their new front door.

Are you talking about the faded light blue metal building behind the MTU? If so, that's where they were when I was there but it's not there now. The sign is gone off the building and everything.
 
Re: School house at Camp Robinson

I suppose they could have moved again, they were changing a bunch of stuff when I was there in 2010. Just to make sure we're talking about the same building, not the one that's down by the 25m range, that's just the armory now. When standing at the front door of the MTU building, it's just around back in the same parking lot. There were no signs when I was there, and it's possible they're gone for phase II. Nowadays the whole second phase is at Chaffee, and the whole cadre just moves out there for the two weeks.

My things have changed. When I attended my first match (I believe it was in '78) The MTU was still headquartered in Nashville. They didn't even have barracks, we stayed in motels down town (N. Little Rock). Being from Alaska, even when they built the barracks, we stayed down town (didn't liek the heat). I attended every WPW championships from 78-91, retiring in 92.

I'm going to AR to visist my brother next month, gonna have to take a side trip to Camp Robinson to check out the changes.

Yeah, same one, the smaller metal building around back of the MTU. You can still see where the big sign was on the front because the paint isn't as faded. There's no sign on the building nor is there the sign at the corner of the main road that used to be there.
I didn't go in and talk to anyone because I had the family with me. We just happen to be over at Burns Park for a soccer tournament.
