Fort
Leavenworth, Kansas, where great leaders have served,
overlooks the Missouri River, on the border between Kansas and

America near the geographical center of the United States. Its
campus setting, open green landscape, and hometown
friendliness enhance Fort Leavenworth as a historical
landmark. Leavenworth, Kansas is considered a high cost of
living area, due to the close proximity to Kansas City. The

312-552-4021.
History
Fort Leavenworth is the oldest active Army post west of the
Mississippi River, and has devoted more than 170 years of
service to the nation. Established in 1827, Fort Leavenworth
has one of the largest and oldest National Historic Landmark
Districts in the Department of the Army. In 1881, Gen. William
T. Sherman established the School of Application for Cavalry
and Infantry. That school evolved into the U.S. Army Command
and General Staff College which is still at Fort Leavenworth.
Mission
The U.S. Army Combined Arms Center (USA CAC) is located at
Fort Leavenworth. CAC is responsible for six core functions:
functional training, leader development and education,
collective training, doctrine, training support, and lessons
learned. In order to accomplish these functions, CAC has five
major subordinate organizations all located at Fort
Leavenworth: the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College,
the Center for Army Lessons Learned, the Combined Arms
Doctrine Directorate, the Combined Arms Center-Training, and
the TRADOC Program Integration Office-Battle Command.
Population Served
Fort Leavenworth supports approximately 5,383 active duty
personnel (all branches), 90 international officers, 5,200
