US Military Mountaineering training has continuously evolved since it's inception and BMMC (or BMC, or variations of) has taken place on many different parts of the globe.
Did you attend at Camp Carson or Hale as a soldier around WWII? Or perhaps as an Airmen at Camp Carson or Stead AFB as part of Strategic Air Command's early Escape and Evasion couses?
Did you successfully avoid cold weather injuries at the Northern Warfare Training Center? Or perhaps grab your Goat Head at US Army Mountain Warfare School at CEATS (Camp Ethan Allen Training Site)?
Share your stories and help to grow the legend and size of this little corner of the military world.

I went to the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Center in Bridgeport California last year. It was a great experience with some of the most professional cadre that have ever taught me. It was also great getting away from the army and seeing how our brothers in the Marines train.

Got my Goat Head at CEATS in 2005. Vermont is mighty cold and snowy in March. I'm sure it still is no match for the cold/snow in the Alaskan Northern Warfare School. Still remember, fondly, ice climbing up the large icefall at Smuggler's Notch during the FTX and marching for miles in snowshoes during the land navigation evaluation. Proud to have put some of the training to use in the mountains of Afghanistan as a 10th Mountain Soldier.
