Fort McCoy, Wisconsin
The claim: Rex 84 facility with several complete interment
compounds.
What it really is: It is a army and National Guard training center that has been around since 1909.
The base trains around 100,000 people a year, and at times up to 150,000 people a year, so multiple barracks are needed, and in fact in the 1990's a major construction project was undertaken there costing $140 million.
Whether or not it was used as a Rex 84 facility is unknown and irrelevant.
