Gulfport Campus
On August 29, 2005, the Mississippi Gulf Coast was enjoying the very best of times when a storm of monumental proportion turned her destructive fury towards the Mississippi coastline. As a result of Hurricane Katrina, we were forced to close the Gulfport Mississippi campus. The new Gulfport facitliy is scheduled to be completed in late 2010.
The 400-year old Graduation Oak that adorns our Gulfport grounds withstood the vicious winds and tidal surges. Today, it majestically stands as a powerful symbol of the heart and humanity of the Armed Forces Retirement Home.
Please check for updates in the near future.
