Weather was sunny and cool – ideal for the day’s events, and many community members stayed long after the competition awards presentation, to socialize at the Health Fair, which was taking place at the Community Resiliency Center. Free, healthy snacks were available free of charge. Provided by the Weed Army Community Hospital Social Committee and USO. The theme of the event this year was "We are Stronger Together." which participants and spectators alike made real through local pride, fellowship and friendship. Picyured: Our Fort Irwin MWR colleagues hard at work. Without the pros at MWR such community events just wouldnt be possible - or as successful as they are. ABOUT THE WEED ARMY COMMUNITY HOSPITAL AND NTC Weed Army Community Hospital (WACH) on Fort Irwin is home to approximately 500 health care professionals and medical staff providing 24/7 support to the National Training Center (NTC), one of the U.S. Army's largest training areas with over 1,000 square miles of maneuver areas, state of the art training facilities and ranges, with airspace restricted to military use. Fort Irwin's isolation makes it an ideal site for a variety of NTC training and exercises. Consequently, the Weed Army Community Hospital is a vital pillar in support of the NTC and Fort Irwin community. A new $160 million, 216,000 square foot hospital, currently under construction, is scheduled to replace the Weed Army Community Hospital in the fall of 2016. The opening of the new facility will mark a significant milestone in the United States Department of Defense commitment to delivering the best possible healthcare to all service members and their families, and underlines the importance of the NTC and the role MEDDAC personnel and facilities play in support of service members and their families at Fort Irwin.
