Army Base

According to sources, another 20,000 soldiers (and their families) are planning to transition into Fort

Bliss over the next few years, which includes two Brigade Combat Teams.

Although no formal discussions have been made discussion about the additions are certainly in the pipeline. For those military professionals that are familiar with the base say there is no better place for the expansion. The wide expanse of land and mountain desert terrain provides for great ground training and includes multiple live fire sites. Although the growth will be good for El Paso one question remains whether the city can sustain the growth to its current infrastructure.
