- My very first video. I was in the Army Reserve and our unit did our two week annual training at Ft Dix. Joe Van Zant and myself used a friend's car and took this little tour of our surroundings on a day off. This was before the days even of the big VHS camcorders. THe equipment was a detachable, portable VCR with separate camera that connected to it.
Wow , this is awesome. I was actually in basic training there in 1985 !
E-4-3 April 82 Brings back fond memories! Thanks.
supplysarge, I was two cycles after you. E-4-3 Sept 1982.
This is something, i was stationed in Schofield barracks Hawaii, but trained at the All Army wrestling trials on Fort Dix NJ during that very time. Our barracks was New Jersey ave. It snowed about 2 weeks before this video. Kind of like jumping in a time machine! Thanks for the video.
I lived there as a Brat 1969 to 1971. I really appreciated your video but found myself crying out as you passed the chapel and turned left. I volunteered at the hospital and the chapel was our hangout. Had you gone a bit further straight from the chapel you would have arrived at our quarters which are now gone. But thank you so much for this video reminder.
I left there for Ft. Rucker, Alabama just two weeks before this video was made! Drill Sergeant Cruz, 2nd Platoon! WOW!! It's been 28 1/2 years since I saw any of this stuff. Cool shit!! Memories galore!!
I wake up every morning to an alarm clock purchased in that PX. May 1987 !
Did Basic Training there Jan,1986. D-4-5 !!! I remember DS Gordon! Best of the best!!! Home of the Ultimate Warrior!!!!
Thank you for the video , the memories , and your service.
And welcome home.
Man this video takes me back! I was last at Ft. Dix August 1989...Seems just like yesterday!
Was there in 1978, BCT C-5-3 an eye opening experience as an 18 year old from Southwest Texas.
Walked out of that place in Sep 74 after 3 years in. Never been on a military base since since.
Like a different lifetime ago.
Brought back lots memories,I was there 06/1987 BCT B/3/26 Thank you
Thanks for sharing that video! I done my basic in 1985 there!
I had Thansgiving Dinner on this day in 1964 while in FCo. 1st. Training Reg. A great meal, and memory as well. A long overdue Thank You to the guys in the Mess Hall.
I went to Fort Dix for Basic Training from May-July 1984. E-4-3 (how the fuck do I remember stupid shit like that?!) We used to wrestle in the back of the barracks on Sundays after church. I don't mean to toot my own horn (yes I do), but I was the undefeated champion. Even beat a few guys that claimed to have wrestled in college. I heard "When Doves Cry" by Prince for the first time sitting under the window of a permanent party guy's room in the "back yard"-Blew me away. Peace to my BT bros.
I was A-1-3 in 1980. Some details to clean those barracks up. They were old barracks back then.
Basic Training C-3-5 and D-1-5 in late 1983. Yes, I restarted. I had never up to then or since been so freaking COLD!!!!! I swore I'd never set foot in New Jersey ever again. So far, so good.
I was stationed there from Jun 84 until Aug 85. Sure does bring back memories.
What unit? I was in 759 military police battalion
June 1985 for me. 5 days after I graduated high school.
April thru June 1973 B-1-2 is here to stay.....
so kewl.. I was at Dix in 1986
Thanks for memories. Took basic training in Alpha 5-3. Aug - Oct 1978
I spent about a month at Ft Dix in November 1962 in an overseas shipping company. I was with four other guys going to Sinope, Turkey, and all the other guys in our company shipped out for Europe except us four. I don't think they knew how to get us there. After about a month, of pulling guard duty, KP, and laundry details, we finally got orders to catch a bus to New York city and fly on a Pan American flight to Ankara Turkey. I remember picking up trash all over that post.
D-1-5 January 1985, Drill SGT Stio... Drill SGT of the Cycle 3rd cycle running. (little Satan) I will never forget ( Yes there were no "Species-Confused" Soldiers - and Yes they could still do the much needed "Wall to wall counseling" ) Thanks for the memories.
1. I turned 6 that very day
2. Barracks at Ft. Dix STILL look exactly the same. Nothing has changed.
C-2-3 Basic training Feb 85, seems like a million years ago now!!

Visited there last year and much hasn't changed for the barracks ... they put carpet into the fort dix barracks ... the commissary got a bit of a face lift and possibly some new buildings but that's about it tbh . Not a terrible base just a bit boring tbh. NYC was fun to visit on the weekends though and appalachia had some good skiing up in Vermont.
I passed through in 1987. "Mad dogs, mad dogs, best of all, first to fight, last to fall". Hooah!!
