The Fort McCoy complex is situated on
60,000 acres, 46,000 of which are available for
maneuver and training. Fort McCoy’s superb
location, quality terrain and four-season climate provide units with significant year-round
training opportunities.
Fort McCoy provides reserve- and activecomponent forces with the networked, integrated, interoperable training resources required to support the Army’s training strategies
with a full spectrum of facilities, ranges, and
training areas.
Fort McCoy offers an environment for units
to train on unified land operations across the
range of military operations, allowing simultaneous conduct of individual- through brigadelevel training, static live fire, maneuver live fire
and force-on-force in both urban and unimproved terrain.
Fort McCoy has 30 live-fire ranges, 17 of
which are automated or instrumented; 21 artillery firing points, 12 mortar firing points and
an 8,000-acre impact area. Ranges supporting
collective live-fire training include two multipurpose training ranges, a convoy live-fire
range, an infantry squad battle course, a multi-

These co-located facilities provide an urban
training area with a continuous 2.4-kilometer
capability for mounted and dismounted urban
training scenarios. Three after-action review facilities support training at these sites.
To provide rural training capability, seven
training areas were constructed, which include
walled farm villages with planted crops, and
one is instrumented with wireless technology.
An urban assault course and two live-fire
shoot houses round out the urban training capability.
Specialized training sites include an Unmanned Aerial Systems strip, a semi-improved
airstrip with a Seizure/Forced-Entry training
site, a Search/Site Exploitation Facility, two
tunnel systems, an engineer water-bridging

HISTORY
Serving America’s armed forces since 1909
Fort McCoy is named for Robert Bruce McCoy.
The son of a Civil War captain, McCoy was
a prominent local resident who, throughout his
lifetime, served as a lawyer, district attorney,
county judge and mayor of Sparta, Wis.
He reached the rank of major general during his 31 years of distinguished military service, which included service in the SpanishAmerican War, the police action in Mexico,
and World War I.
McCoy returned from the Spanish-American War with a dream. He knew that as warfare
became increasingly more modern, larger and
more-powerful guns would be developed, and
training would be emphasized. He envisioned
these changes would require larger training
areas, and, by 1905, he had acquired approximately 4,000 acres of land in the Sparta area.
Maj. Samuel Allen of the 7th Field Artillery at Fort Snelling, Minn., also admired the
terrain of the Sparta area for its training value.
September 1905 marked the first use of the
land for military purposes. McCoy invited Allen’s unit to put his family’s ranch to the test
during 16 days of training.
As a result of the 16-day test, Allen recommended to an Army review board that a large
piece of land be purchased for an artillery camp.
Approximately 14,200 acres of land, including
McCoy’s 4,000 acres, were purchased in 1909.
The resulting parcel was called the “Sparta Maneuver Tract.”
The Sparta Maneuver Tract was divided approximately in half by the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad. The maneuver camp situated on the northern half of the
parcel was referred to as Camp Emory Upton,
while that to the south was known as Camp
Robinson.
In 1910, the War Department authorized
$40,000 for construction and improvements
to the area. The camp officially was designated
Camp McCoy Nov. 19, 1926, in honor of Maj.
Gen. Robert B. McCoy, who had died that
same year.
Nearly 9,500 acres of land were acquired
from the Department of Agriculture in 193839. From 1940-42, an additional 37,437 acres
were acquired by a directive from the Secretary
of War. These additions included construction
of the large, triangular-shaped cantonment
area, much of which still exists today.
The “New Camp” officially was inaugurated
Aug. 30, 1942. Total cost for the construction
was estimated at $30 million, and the camp capacity was set at 35,000.
Camp McCoy was used as a training facility for many World War II units, including the
2nd Infantry Division, the 76th Infantry Division and the 100th Infantry Battalion, which
was comprised of Hawaii National Guardsmen
of Japanese ancestry. The post also served as a
14th Field artillery, 1920s
prisoner-of-war and enemy-alien prison camp
during this time.
Aside from temporary lulls, the installation
has been in almost constant use since its founding in 1909 and has provided artillery and maneuver training opportunities for millions of
military personnel from all services.
Camp McCoy was aligned under U.S.
Army Forces Command July 1, 1973, and officially was re-designated as Fort McCoy Sept.
30, 1974.
In 1990-91, during Operations Desert
Shield/Storm, Soldiers from 74 separate units
and their equipment were deployed and redeployed at Fort McCoy.
From June 1991 through June 1992, the
post also completed Operation Desert Fix,
which was one of the largest reserve-component
equipment demobilization/repair missions in
the Army. During Desert Fix, Fort McCoy was
responsible for inventorying, inspecting, repairing and returning more than a division-and-ahalf ’s worth of equipment to 121 owning units
located throughout a nine-state area.
The 1990s ushered in the first great construction growth experienced at the post since
the construction of the cantonment area in
1942.
From 1990 to the present day, new construction projects have served to modernize
the post’s infrastructure, facilities and training
areas. The hundreds of millions of dollars invested in the post have benefitted Fort McCoy
as well the local economy, with the majority
of the new construction contracts having been
awarded to regional firms.
Training levels at Fort McCoy reached record proportions in fiscal year 2000, with
149,432 personnel participating. The installation has provided support and facilities for the
training of more than 100,000 personnel annually since 1984.
Fort McCoy was aligned under the U.S.
Army Reserve Command in 1993.
Fort McCoy was realigned under what is
now known as the Installation Management
Command in 2002.
Today, Fort McCoy’s primary mission is to
support the readiness of the force by serving as
a training center and a support site for powerprojection missions.
The installation has served in a continuing
capacity as an Army power-projection site by
processing and preparing military personnel for
duty in overseas contingency operations.
From Sept. 11, 2001 through Dec. 30,
2011, 140,197 military personnel from 2,416
units mobilized or demobilized at Fort McCoy
during the installation’s efforts to support the
Global War on Terror.
Today the post provides full-scale support
to its customers at each juncture of its training
triad — Transient, Institutional and Exercise.

McCoy’s history, please see “Fort McCoy History &
Heritage,” which is available on the installation or

barracks — are set up to depict Soldier life during the 1940s. Display items
include bunk beds, footlockers, mannequins, and potbelly stoves. Another

Whitetail Ridge Ski Area
Fort McCoy’s Whitetail Ridge Ski Area provides the Fort McCoy community and the public
with multiple opportunities for outdoor winter
recreation.
The 200-acre facility also is used for military
training.
Whitetail Ridge is open from approximately
mid-December through mid-March, weather
permitting. Snow-making and snow-grooming
equipment located on site keeps slopes in optimum condition. More than 20,000 people enjoy
the facility each year.
Slopes & Chalet
Downhill skiers and snowboarders of all skill
levels will find four groomed and lighted ski runs
— the longest exceeding 1,300 feet — equipped
with a self-loading T-bar lift. The vertical drop of
the slope is more than 185 feet.
A terrain park also is available to snowboarders.
The facility is recognized by the National Ski
Patrol, and patrol members monitor activity on
the slopes to promote safety and to attend to any
injuries.
Snow tubers can enjoy the excitement of sliding down an 800-foot slope. The five tubing runs
are equipped with a separate rope tow, making
the journey to the top of the hill as enjoyable as
the trip down.
When natural snow conditions are sufficient,
cross-country skiers have access to more than five
miles of groomed trails.
Snowshoers also will find opportunities for
fun.
The Whitetail Ridge Chalet provides an indoor respite.
In addition to providing a break from the
cold, the Family area of the facility serves a variety of food and beverages and has large windows
allowing views to the activities outdoors.
