What are your opinions on being assigned to a heavy brigade at Fort Stewart?

I was with 703rd MSB which no longer exist. At least not at Ft Stewart. I was in the only transportation company in the division. The training tempo was intense. I had no problems being there. If you remember that Ft Stewart is a rapid deployment mechanized armor playground you will be fine. Ft Stewart is a place where you actually train to do ARMY shit. 3rd ID has a proud history in the defense of out nation. If your looking for a place where the food is great, the time off is plentiful, and rigors of training are non existent than Ft Stewart will burn you up like a burnt match. If you wanna train, get uber proficient in your MOS and have pride in your unit Ft Stewart is a great place to be. Remember also if your outdoorsy and a US history buff the surrounding area is a bread basket for both hobbies.

I am going there myself in 2 weeks. Never trust others when it comes to picking a instillation, every experience is different. Such as I am at Fort Benning and love it, but others think this is the worst place ever. It’s all in the job you do and how you approach it.

I was a Battalion CSM at Stewart and the training was good and the units competitive. The Family and Soldier care support systems were good. While it is remote, it is close to Savanah and the Ocean. Like any small town there are issues. I have professional aquaintences still on sight and they say it is still a great assignment. The Army, everywhere, is what you make of it. Thank you for your service.
