Fort Sill is a major U.S. Army installation located in southwest Oklahoma, the heart of "Oklahoma's Great Plains" country--a region of wide, open spaces and clear blue skies. It is 90 miles southwest of Oklahoma City, the state capital, and 50 miles north of Wichita Falls, Texas on Interstate 44. The post is adjacent to and just north of the city of Lawton. Entry to the post is through three main gates: Key Gate from the west, Sheridan Road Gate from the north, and Fort Sill Gate, also from the north. All field artillery soldiers and Marines receive their training there, as well as many international students from allied nations.
Fort Sill was the home of the US Army Field Artillery Center, including the Army Field Artillery School and III Corps Artillery, and the Army's Center for Fires, but the BRAC 2005 Commission recommended that the Air Defense Artillery (ADA) unit be sent to Fort Sill. This supported the establishment of the Net Fires Center, combining the Artillery and ADA schools which provide a force stabilization opportunity for soldiers in this unit. This expanding role is supported by Fort Sill's 94,000 acres of land and 20,000 permanent party and civilian personnel. Additionally, the fort's starship constructed basic training site enables it to train nearly 20,000 new soldiers annually. Currently, almost $75 million of new construction is under way. Fort Sill's dedication to continuous infrastructure improvements and business operations makes it one of the premier training and force projection posts in the Army.
