Road Trip: Camp Bullis, Texas

Camp Bullis Military Training Reservation is a U.S. Army training camp comprising 27,990 acres in Bexar County, Texas, USA, just northwest of San Antonio. Camp Bullis provides Base Operations Support and Training Support to Joint Base San Antonio. The camp is named for Brigadier General John L. Bullis.

Camp Bullis and Camp Stanley make up the Leon Springs Military Reservation. Camp Bullis is used primarily as maneuvering grounds for U.S. Army, Air Force and Marines combat units. It is also utilized as a field training site for the various medical units stationed at Brooke Army Medical Center in nearby Fort Sam Houston.

JBSA services more DOD students than any other installation, more active runways than any other installation, houses the DOD's largest hospital and only level one trauma center, supports more than 250,000 personnel, including 425 retired general officers, and interfaces with 1,000 civic leaders of San Antonio, 20 smaller communities, four counties and four Congressional Districts.

Its total plant replacement value is about 10.3 billion with an annual budget of $800 million. Despite its uniqueness in setup, the 80,000 members who belong to JBSA are making a difference, not only in San Antonio, but for the nation...accomplishing diverse training, flying, medical, cyber, intelligence and installation missions every day.

The Soldier Medic Training Site (SMTS) is located at Camp Bullis, Texas. It is designed to simulate conditions that new soldier medics are likely to face while deployed to current areas of conflict.

The staff is composed primarily of non-commissioned officers that have been medics for at least five years and soldiers that have been deployed to combat.

I spent some time there in 1975 for an Air Force, Air Base Ground Defense course. Place was wild then and it was a rough couple of weeks.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...any walks today?

We had snow over night and are expecting more tonight..

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hello Veterans, wherever you are!!

[left that other site]

It was almost 60 today, and more expected tomorrow. However, Monday is a VERY busy day for me lesson-wise (which is a good thing!) maybe tomorrow Penny and i will get into the woods for a change.

Good old Camp Bullis. Oh, how I recall participating in an orienteering competition there many, many moons ago.

[Army Air Corps]

Camp Bullis is in the vicinity of my hometown. I driven past there many, many times in my life.

[luvie]

We’ve been to San Antonio many times. Not sure why I didn’t ever hear of it. Beautiful country. WAY prettier than, say, Lubbock. LOL! Or Odessa!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Oh my gosh...60?? Hope you girls can get out and go hiking. Is it dry enough for Penny’s paws?

[Kathy in Alaska]

More good news via Luv W....but please keep those prayers coming.

LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON UPDATE FROM MRS. MAYOR: He wants to go home.[!!!]

He keeps asking me to get an extension cord, I assume to plug him into the wall so he can get up and go! He also was insisting his stepfather was dying, that he needed to get up to talk to him. But his step dad is fine. He also pointed to the ceiling and said "there's that Caribbean lady." I need me some o that

HE STILL HAS SOME DELIRIUM BUT SEEMS TO BE MAKING AMAZING PROGRESS. PRAYERS ANSWERED!

[PROCON]

.. He also pointed to the ceiling and said "there's that Caribbean lady." I need me some o that

LOL, he's going to have to do some 'splaining when he comes too!
