history

On October 1st, 1964 the Army NCO schools  I (HUS I) were set up in Sonthofen and II in Aachen . They were dissolved in 1972 and 1973, respectively.

On June 27, 1990, two schools with the same name were set up in Münster and Weiden in the Upper Palatinate . On the same day the Army NCO School III (HUS III) was established in Lahnstein . Each school was responsible for the area of ​​a corps of the army. On October 2, 1990 the Army NCO School IV (HUS IV) followed in Delitzsch for the newly established IV Corps in the new federal states. She was the successor of the NCO II "Kurt Bennewitz" school of the National People's Army of the GDR . Reasons for the re-establishment of army non-commissioned officer schools in addition to the troop schools were both the need to uniformly train non-commissioned officers at troop and group leader level in the training of general training areas - especially in methodological / didactic terms - and to make them safer, as well as the good experience that had been done with the Army NCO schools that already existed in the 1960s and 1970s.

With the fundamental reorganization of NCO training from 2002, the mission and structure of the HUS changed. You are now responsible for the final central training with a career examination within the newly established sergeant careers (troop and specialist service). The sergeant's course lasts 20 weeks and consists of a ten-week general military part, which is intended to enable sergeants of all branches of the armed forces to perform general tasks as superiors, leaders, trainers and educators. A ten-week English language training course takes into account the requirements arising from the new role of the Bundeswehr as an operational army.

On October 1, 2003, the various army non-commissioned officers 'schools were merged into one army non-commissioned officers' school with four teaching groups (A – D).

In 2010, teaching group C was moved to Delitzsch and until 2012 a teaching group D was set up in Weiden in the Ostmark barracks . In 2016, teaching group B was moved from Münster to Delitzsch, and all teaching groups have been stationed at the Saxon location since then.

Association badge

The association badge (worn on the left sleeve of the service suit) shows, like all badges of the military schools, two crossed swords on a red background. In addition, an "S" indicates that it is one of the Army School . In contrast to the coats of arms of the other troop schools, the silver-black cord does not represent a specific weapon color for a particular type of troop , but corresponds to the border e.g. B. the division association badge as well as the Army Office, since the NCOs come from all branches of the army. Thus it corresponds overall to the coat of arms of the Army Office with an additional "S".

The internal association badge is in the colors of the flag of Germany black, red and gold. It takes up the crossed swords as a general symbol for the army. In addition, like the internal association badge of the Army Officers' School , it shows the Iron Cross .
