Service members are shown in late August participating in training operations at Fort McCoy, Wis.

Through the entire month, post officials with the Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization and Security expected more than 12,000 troops to train on post for August 2021.

For fiscal year 2021, installation officials also expect the post to have supported more than 100,000 troops training at Fort McCoy.

Fort McCoy's motto is to be the “Total Force Training Center.”

Also, located in the heart of the upper Midwest, Fort McCoy is the only U.S. Army installation in Wisconsin. The installation has provided support and facilities for the field and classroom training of more than 100,000 military personnel from all services nearly every year since 1984.
