Millions of United States Army careers have began at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri, many of them in barracks like those pictured on this vintage historical postcard. Fort Leonard Wood, in #PulaskiCountyUSA, was created December 1940, and except for a brief time before the Korean War has been training soldiers ever since. Today, Fort Leonard Wood trains service members from all branches of service- Army, Marine Corp, Navy, Air Force and even Coast Guard.
A squad room at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri is the subject of this vintage postcard.

I trained in those barracks from 1964 to 1970 USAR Michigan Woodchoppers. By 1970 they were using them for fire practice and we had college dorm level brick barracks.
Thanks for sharing your memory Larry! And, Thank You for your service! —Laura, Pulaski County Tourism Bureau
