Camp Buehring

Much of Camp Buehring has operated continuously since its establishment in 2003.^{[citation needed]} Units deploying to Iraq from CONUS would spend 2-3 weeks at Buehring to receive last batch of field equipment, zero their weapons, acclimatize, and then move forward via Route 1 or by flight to their final destination within Iraq.

A vehicle-ramming attack on March 30, 2003, left sixteen people wounded after a disgruntled Egyptian electrician rammed a pick-up truck into a group of US soldiers. The perpetrator was shot twice and seriously wounded.^[2]

During the spring of 2020, the worldwide coronavirus pandemic shuttered many of the morale, welfare, and recreation outlets on the post, along with the establishment of social distancing and mask usage guidelines. Quarantine procedures were mandatory for incoming personnel. The post did not experience its own outbreak of the virus, though imported cases were recurring and infrequent.^{[citation needed]}

According to U.S. officials, an Iranian F-5 attacked Camp Buehring during the opening days of the 2026 Iran war.^[3]
