Fort Dix

The census-designated place of Fort Dix is part of the New Hanover Township in Burlington County, New Jersey.  Established in 1917, Fort Dix was in 2009 combined with adjoining U.S. Air Force and Navy facilities to become Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst in 2009. However, it remains commonly known as “Fort Dix”, “ASA Dix”, or “Dix”. The base was originally established as Camp Dix, named in honor of Major General John Adams Dix, a veteran of the War of 1812 and the American Civil War, and a former United States Senator, Secretary of the Treasury and Governor of New York. Dix has a history of mobilizing, training, and demobilizing soldiers from as early as World War I through April 2015, when Forts Bliss and Hood in Texas assumed full responsibility for that mission. In 1978, the first female recruits entered basic training at Fort Dix. It served as a training and staging ground during the war and a demobilization center after the war. Now, the primary mission of the fort is to mobilize, train and deploy army troops. It also provides financial, administrative, and logical support. It is a major training center for the Reserve Component Soldiers and includes the Army Reserve and National Guard.
