We enjoy a rich history. Our installation dates to 1827 and is the oldest continuously active Army post west of the Mississippi River. The post evolved from an isolated frontier fort safeguarding westward expansion. Since the inception of the Command and General Staff College in 1883, Fort Leavenworth enjoys a continuing legacy of educational excellence and preparing Army leaders to safeguard America's interests at home and abroad. The Fort Leavenworth Garrison, part of Installation Management Command - West Region, is committed to serving the Army Family - Soldiers, civilian employees, and their Families. We look forward to serving you. |
