8. Ft Leavenworth Army Installation

On a recent business trip to the oldest active United States Army post and oldest permanent settlement in Kansas, I had the opportunity to explore the installation and see the historical architecture, the old military Disciplinary Barracks complex, and the tribute to the African-American soldiers of the U.S 10th Cavalry Regiments of the United States Army. As I explored the installation and realizing it was built in 1827, it was easy to imagine what life on the Fort must have been like during the tumultuous period of the expansion westward and the conflicts with the Native American tribes. Driving into the now decommissioned United States Disciplinary Barracks (at one point the Department of Defenses’ only maximum security prison) gave perspective to Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, and Airmen being court martialed and sentenced to serve a sentence such as Second Lieutenant William Calley for his violations of the Uniform Code of Justice (UCMJ) in his actions at the 1968 My Lai Massacre in Vietnam. Today the Disciplinary Barracks is gone and the United States Army Command and General Staff College (CGSC) is the focus of this historically significant Fort. If in the area, I would highly recommend visiting the historical Fort.

This is a beautiful historic mansion with so much local history! If you are visiting the area, or live nearby, take an hour or two to see this beauty. It's been well preserved and the volunteers are very well informed and knowledgeable.
