Training on Fort Benning
 |
More than 108,000 Soldiers train annually in one of the 61
courses, conducted seven days a week, 50 weeks out of the year on
Fort Benning. Every American who joins the Army as an elite
Infantryman does initial training on Fort Benning. Last year alone,
more than 25,000 new Infantrymen trained here in skills and
competencies required to succeed in combat. As they enter our gates
as civilians, they graduate as some of the Nation’s most lethal, new
warriors. Our area of responsibility will grow by 2011, as the Base
Realignment and Closure Report adds 30,000 people to our
installation.
