This list should be called "List of U.S. Army posts" That is the proper term for Army installations – the other American miliary services have bases. Rlquall 02:53, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I would be opposed to that, because "posts," though for the most part correct, are only one type of installation they operate out of. They also operate out of Cooperative Security Locations (CSLs), Forward Operating Sites (FOSs) and Forward Operating Bases (FOBs). --Petercorless 08:28, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Indiana

If we're including National Guard facilities, then Indiana has Camp Atterbury. --69.245.192.52 05:16, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Active only?

If this list is only active Army posts, it ought to say so. If it includes historical posts also, it ought to say so. Luxomni 00:33, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Just added Camp Lemonier, Djibouti

Though command of the Camp was handed over from the USMC to the Navy in 2006, the U.S. Army has a contingent present on the base. Just a thought, but there are going to be many more cross-service installations around the world with the new Pentagon strategy of Cooperative Security Locations and Forward Operating Sites. --Petercorless 07:25, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
