- Fort Lee -

Fort Lee recently celebrated its Centennial in 2017, marking 100 years since the establishment of Camp Lee in 1917. The post is situated alongside the Tri-Cities of Virginia – Petersburg, Colonial Heights and Hopewell – as well as the counties of Chesterfield, Dinwiddie and Prince George. The Army garrison shares many similarities with its neighbors. Beyond its primary mission of training sustainment Soldiers, Fort Lee is a community, a workplace and a home to hundreds of military families. Fort Lee experienced enormous growth following the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure mandates and its designation as the Army Sustainment Center of Excellence – a focused training base for military supply, subsistence, maintenance, munitions, transportation and more. Those decisions sparked a massive, $1.2 billion base modernization mission, bringing to the post new training facilities, administrative areas, dining facilities, barracks and support facilities for military families.
