Fort McPherson is home to Forces Command Headquarters, Third U.S. Army, and U.S. Army Reserve Command.
As the Army's largest major command, FORSCOM supervises the training of almost 800,000 Active, Army National Guard and U.S. Army Reserve soldiers to provide a strategic ground force capable of responding rapidly to crisis worldwide.
Third U.S. Army's principal mission as the Army component of United States Central Command (CENTCOM) is one of regional determent and the ability to deploy on short notice to its area of responsibility: 19 countries covering Southwest Asia, Northeast Africa, and the Persian Gulf.
The United States Army Reserve Command (USARC), commands, controls, and supports all Army Reserve troop units in the Continental United States with the exception of Psychological Operations, Civil Affairs and Special Forces units. The USARC also ensures the readiness of its forces and prepares the nearly 1,700 units under its command to mobilize and deploy to a wartime theater of operation.
