I was doing some research and stumbled upon a military base named Camp Mabry. Does anyone know which military branch is based there? I think it might be the army, but I'm not totally sure.
Camp Mabry, located in Austin, Texas, is primarily a training and administrative center for the Texas Military Department, which oversees the Texas Army National Guard, Texas Air National Guard and Texas State Guard, all branches of the Texas Military Forces. So while it may not be a base for a specific branch of the U.S. Military like the Army, Navy or Air Force, it does serve as a major hub for state-level military organization. It might be worth noting that while the Armies and Air Forces of the National Guards do fall under their respective U.S. military branches during times of federal activation, they generally operate under state authority.
