Fort Leonard Wood now trains and educates service members and develops
doctrine and capabilities for the Training and Doctrine Commands
U.S. Army Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear School,
U.S. Army Engineer School, and U.S. Army Military Police School.
Fort Leonard Wood has received numerous additional
responsibilities to include supporting a colonel-commanded Marine
Corps Detachment and an Air Force Squadron, which are both the largest

Navy Seabee Detachment and elements of the Coast Guard train here
as well.
**Fort Devens, MA
textThe 7th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division was located at
Fort Devens from 1946 to 1950. Already at reduced strength, the regiment
was further decimated when a battalion from Fort Devens was reflagged
as the 3d Battalion, 8th Cavalry Regiment, and sent to Korea to join
the 1st Cavalry Division. The 7th Infantry deployed to San Francisco,
California and sailed for Japan on 20 August 1950, arriving on 16
September 1950 to marry-up with the 15th Infantry Regiment and the
division headquarters.
Fort Devens hosted the Army Security Agency Training
Center & School (ASATC&S) from April 1951 to 1996.[citation

Artillery Brigade, part of 1st Region, Army Air Defense Command.
On 15 February 1958 the 2d Infantry Brigade was reactivated
at Fort Devens, Massachusetts as the Pentomic 2d Infantry Brigade
with its own shoulder sleeve insignia. It spent the next five years
training in northern Massachusetts and Cape Cod. The Brigade was prepared
to support the Marines landing in the 1958 Lebanon crisis but did
not deploy.
