Visiting family on post, found this place a real Gem. A small Army Post, but with everything one could use. Real small town atmosphere wish I was still in the Army, and assigned here.

Went to the museum,Buffalo soldier memorial and the National cemetery. Very interesting history here.

Once you get through the security at the front gate, you will see an amazing Army Installation. Be sure to visit The Frontier Army Museum and the Buffalo Soldier Monument. The Wayside Tour gives you so much info at each stop. Will worth the visit.

Take the time to visit this historical US Army post and you will be surprised by the fun things waiting on the other side of the gate!

It was a strange, but secure feeling to be back on a U.S. Military installation again. Had not had that feeling since being discharged in 1967. This fort holds so much history and is full of well maintained vintage buildings. Be sure to see the Buffalo Soldier monument , the museum, and take in the view overlooking the river. Do not leave without spending some time at the cemetery to consider what price has been paid for our freedom! Even though that is being diminished by the "in crowd" in Washington D.C.

Fort Leavenworth is a beautiful Army installation, and things just keep improving all the time. New housing, road improvements, enlarged Commissary, new community buildings, and child care centers, just to name a few. If you haven't been on this post in a while, come back and drive around. You won't even recognize some areas. The new buildings and additions fit right in with the historic aspects, with a nice blend of old and new. Landscaping and lawn care are always kept up professionally, and residents proudly display their Lawn of the Month signs in the different villages. If you don't have military I.D., be prepared for a somewhat long wait to get on post via the civilian lane. Just have your driver's license ready and do your part to cooperate, and you'll be on post before you know it. There are several dining options in the PX/Commissary complex, as well as Burger King. The Frontier Army Museum and Gift Shop are must-see things to put on your itinerary. Enjoy a gorgeous view of the river from the bluffs, and try not to get nervous as you drive past the old Disciplinary Barracks, which are quite intimidating even though retired from use as a DB. Come enjoy a trip to Fort Leavenworth, and get a reality check on our American soldiers' lives. The last stop of your post tour should be a slow drive through the cemetery. In fact, you should pull over and consider the cost of your American freedoms. These are real men and women, with real families, that gave their freedom for yours and mine.

There is plenty to see at Ft. Leavenworth, but one should arrive well in advance of the time you want to be on the fort in order to get through the front gate. An ID is required and one must wait in line (sometimes 30-45 minutes) in order to enter post. Once you arrive you'll want to see the Buffalo Soldier Memorial, Frontier Army Museum and other sites. Kiosks are positioned around the post where one can listen to information. This is a good half day trip or spend the whole day! Civilians can stop for lunch at the PX which has a food court. Other dining opportunities exist also, but it is best to check the fort web site to see what is available as things change from time to time.

What a wonderful museum. The base is quite a showpiece. Beautiful grounds.The museum is medium size, very informative and just a really nice museum. One of the most beautiful pieces of property where this base is built. Quite historic!! It is worth spending a day driving around the base, stopping to walk around and admire the beauty of the area and the historic buildings and barracks. I also understand that the old prison also might have a museum inside. Also visit the museum, and the African American monument.

As the oldest active Army fort west of the Mississippi River, Fot Leavenworth is the hub of historical activity in the American western frontier. Scenic, modern and very friendly.

Very historic and nice to see our servicemen in such a nice area. Visit Leavenworth National Cemetary.
