    Fort Armstrong, established in 1816, served as a vital military installation on Rock Island Arsenal, Illinois. Initially constructed to maintain peace among Native American tribes and European settlers, it later played a significant role in safeguarding American interests during the War of 1812. Throughout its history, Fort Armstrong served as a key strategic outpost, witnessing various conflicts and transformations until its eventual decommissioning in 1836.
