Need a little help getting around Fort Jackson? Well, help is on the way in the form of a new, user-friendly smartphone application that provides the Fort Jackson community with information and resources.

Fort Jackson has joined many installations across the Army to provide digital resources via the My Army Post App. The app contains resources for newcomers, Soldiers, Families and visitors coming on post for graduations.

MAPA is the new information center for U.S. Army garrisons around the world, replacing the previous (Digital Garrison) app, and is available to download for free on the Google Play and Apple App Store.

Once downloaded, users select their installation from a list and begin accessing resources ranging from current weather conditions, post-wide alert messages, emergency contact numbers, and the hours and locations of facilities.
