There is at least one of those WWII barracks that are now part of the new Infantry Museum. They have a WWII company street that includes Patton's HQ and a Chapel. From what I understand the Chapel is already available for rental for special occasions.
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American GI. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

martinjmpr (2/20/2008)I think there are some old WWII barracks over on main post that have been re-sided and used for offices for years (they were offices when I was at Benning almost 30 years ago.) I was on Benning two weeks ago. Soldier's Plaza is still standing tall. `

Fond memories indeed, although the stall-less commodes were, well, a bit gay, as was raking lines in the sand in the dark under the barracks.

Your remark reminded me that I took a picture of those commodes...
