For most of 1941 Engineer troops spent 12 weeks in basic military and engineer training. (Units located at Ft. Belvoir on Dec. 7, 1941 were: 43rd Engineer (General Services) Regiment; 84th Engineer (Camouflage) Battalion; 85th Engineer (Heavy Ponton) Battalion; 95th Engineer (Separate) Battalion (Colored) ). This was later reduced to 8 weeks in December of 1941, and then changed back to 12 weeks in 1942.
