The Army Community Covenant is designed to develop and foster effective state and community partnerships with the Army in improving the quality of life for Soldiers and their Families, both at their current duty stations and as they transfer from state to state.
The Army Community Covenant is tailored at the local level, with leaders at both local and state levels participating in covenant signings, planned between April and December 2008, recognizing the strength of Army Soldiers and their Families and the support of their local Community.
We are a premier quad-services installation committed to excellence. As an Army Medical Installation we are home to the United States Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC), the National Cancer Institute (NCI-Frederick) and 37 mission partners. The primary missions include biomedical research and development, medical materiel management and global telecommunications. We are also home to a National Interagency Confederation for Biological Research and National Interagency Biodefense Campus. The United States Army Garrison (USAG) provides base operations support for Fort Detrick.
Fort Detrick has been an important part of the Frederick community for more than 53 years. The Cutting Edge contains the history of Fort Detrick and the growth it has experienced. The biweekly Fort Detrick STANDARD provides current policies, information, and features about people on the installation.
Fort Detrick is the largest employer in Frederick County. As a new member of the community, there are many services waiting for you. The "Newcomers Link" provides information about the amenities for you and your family available through the Relocation Readiness Program.
