A premier Joint Training Center needed updating and expansion.

The new LTG R. L. Esmay Education Center facility supports the Wyoming Military Department’s position as a premier Joint Training Center with more than 78,000 acres of maneuver and training ranges and 64 square miles of air space, all of which provides for combined arms training using multiple scenarios over varied terrain. The new center supports all manner of training and operations for all state and federal missions, including Camp Guernsey’s mission to facilitate realistic combat training for current and future American warfighters. The site layout adheres to UFC 4-010-01 Department of Defense Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for Buildings.

The facility celebrates its namesake and military history.

Lieutenant General Esmay was responsible for obtaining the appropriation for the establishment of the outstanding military training area at Camp Guernsey, Wyoming. The General Instruction Building project includes design and construction of a specially designed, +110,000 square feet of new facilities that not only accommodate the daily operations of the WYMD 213^th Regiment RTI but also serves the local community with mixed-use public spaces (160-seat auditorium, classroom spaces, etc.). The project also includes design and construction of a new 400-person dining facility and a 110-bed, two-story enlisted barracks. The facilities celebrate the military history of Camp Guernsey with exterior features that consider the adjacent historic buildings on the cantonment and through the creation of both exterior and interior spaces that showcase military equipment and materials.

A cooperative effort maintains the integrity of a historic district.

With plans for constructing state land and a design that meets all applicable local, state and federal building codes, 澳门足彩app and the Wyoming State Historic Preservation Office ensured that the integrity of the historic district, Camp Guernsey Cantonment Area, was maintained. The exterior aesthetics of the three new buildings are compatible with the existing buildings on the Cantonment: Low-sloped and flat roofs (GIB) and sloped, asphalt shingle roofs (DFAC and Billeting), cultured stone veneer base wainscot with light brown and tan stucco colors above.
