We are proud of your decision to serve your country. You are now a Soldier, part of the best organization in the world: the U.S. Army. You will depart the St. Louis International Airport by bus for a 2 to 3-hour ride to Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. You will arrive at the 43d AG Battalion (Reception).

The Battalion also processes Prior Service Soldiers for worldwide assignments.
The result is that the name “Fort Leonard Wood” was available more than a decade later when Fort Leonard Wood broke ground in 1940. At the time that groundbreaking was for something called the Seventh Corps Area Training Center but in 1941 the War Department designated the installation as Fort Leonard Wood.

You will then march to the barracks, where you will receive a bunk, a locker and an opportunity to get some rest. If you need a lock for your wall locker, you will be able to purchase one in the morning. Be prepared for an early morning wake up by your Drill Sergeant and Processing Sergeants.


This is where you begin your transformation from civilian to Army Soldier. You'll live in Army barracks, eat in an award winning Army dining facility, and start learning the Army way.
Your stay at the Reception Battalion is normally a 'brief' 3 and 1/2 days, but this crucial 84 hours creates the foundation for your future Army career. In Grant Hall (the 43d AG Reception Station), you will process through 18 different stations under the control of seasoned Reception NCOs and Drill Sergeants. During this time, the military records that will follow you throughout your Army career, including medical, financial and personnel records will be established.
