Quictart. What is it?

Wiki quote:

Quote:
The site quictart of World War II was a major impetus to operations at the fort.
Google Translate's detect language tool says it's Spanish.

Google web search only quotes the same Wiki article over and over. And over.

thefreedictionary.com don't know the word either.

quictart

Anybody?

From an earlier version of the Wiki article (click 'view history' at the top of the page):

In 1936 the 1st was joined by the 13th to become the 7th Cavalry Brigade (Mechanized). The site quickly became the center for mechanization tactics and doctrine. The success of the German mechanized units at the start of World War II was a major impetus to operations at the fort. A new Armored Force was established in July 1940 with its headquarters at Fort Knox with the 7th Cavalry Brigade becoming the 1st Armored Division. The Armored Force School and the Armored Force Replacement Center were also sited at Fort Knox in October 1940, and their successors remain located there today. The site was expanded to cope with its new role. By 1943, there were 3,820 buildings on 106,861 acres (43,245 ha). A third of the base has been torn down within the last ten years,[when?] with another third slated by 2010.

It's a rectangular pastry that you put into a toaster for a quick breakfast or snack.

eta: you can get them at the Kwik-E-Mart, right next to the Squishees.
