Fort Irwin

Built in 1940, Fort Irwin National Training Center (NTC) is a major training area for the United States military and serves as the Army’s premier training center. Located in the Mojave Desert in northern San Bernardino County, California, the National Training Center is home to thousands of service members, families, and additional monthly rotational forces.

In early 2021, Bob Hope USO will open a center located in Building #21 for daily service to permanent troops and families including entertaining and meaningful activities for families, meetings and various programs like monthly Coffee Connections, single soldier events, the Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program and more. The Warrior Zone Annex in the RUBA will be an outreach location to execute programs for the deployed service members mustered in the sterile area of the RUBA.
