The training center traces its history back to the formation of the 1st Brigade of the 2nd Tula Infantry Division on 1 August 1918, celebrated as its anniversary.

The division defended the border with Manchuria from its formation, and between 4 and 25 October took part in the Primorsky operation to defeat the Zemskaya Rat, the last remnants of the Whites in the Far East.
