Most soldiers will tell you Fort Jackson is cake walk compared to some of the other army posts and bases around the world. Well in a way it’s true, there is a reason we call Fort Jackson “Relaxin’ Jackson” but in other ways it really isn’t all that true. As for Fort Leonard Wood well, there really isn’t a whole lot I can say besides it is one of the most well known and oldest army posts still around today and that they have excellent training for both basic combat and advanced individual training. So let me tell you the way I see things and later you can see if you agree or not.
Fort Jackson is located within Columbia, South Carolina, Fort Jackson is one of the most predictable places when it comes to the weather (well in the summer anyways).
