The Fort Reno dispute, however, has been thick for decades. The disagreement centers on roughly 6,700 acres of land west of Oklahoma City that was once part of the Cheyenne and Arapaho Reservation. It later formed a U.S. Army post and is now largely administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as the Oklahoma and Central Plains Agricultural Research Center. Tribal leaders argue they were never compensated for the loss of the land and that it should have reverted to them when the Army stopped using it in 1948.<<
