The US Disciplinary Barracks (USDB) at Fort Leavenworth, located at 881 McClellan Ave in Fort Leavenworth, KS, is a military prison is a specialized correctional facility operated by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) to house service members who have been convicted of crimes under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). These facilities play a crucial role in maintaining military discipline, ensuring accountability, and upholding the integrity of the armed forces. Unlike civilian prisons, military correctional institutions operate under a structured system that enforces strict discipline, provides rehabilitative opportunities, and, in some cases, allows for reintegration into military service. The United States Disciplinary Barracks (USDB) at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, is the nation’s highest-security military prison, designed for inmates serving lengthy sentences, while lower-level military brigs and regional correctional facilities house individuals serving shorter terms or awaiting court-martial.
When a service member is convicted at court-martial, they undergo a classification and intake process to determine their security level, rehabilitation needs, and facility placement. Those sentenced to less than a year may be housed in a regional Level I facility, which focuses on rehabilitation and potential return to duty. Those serving longer sentences or convicted of serious offenses, such as violent crimes or espionage, are assigned to Level II or Level III facilities, where they serve their time under stricter security protocols. Pretrial detainees, those awaiting trial or sentencing, may also be held in military jails or regional brigs. Regardless of their classification, all military prison inmates are subject to a regimented schedule, work assignments, and rehabilitative programs, including vocational training, education, and substance abuse counseling, aimed at preparing them for reintegration into society.
Military correctional facilities also have distinct parole and clemency procedures, overseen by the Military Clemency and Parole Board, which evaluates inmate progress and determines eligibility for early release. Unlike civilian inmates, those who are dishonorably discharged upon release may lose military benefits and face additional challenges reintegrating into civilian life. However, for eligible service members, military prisons provide structured programs that encourage rehabilitation and personal accountability. As part of the broader Military Justice System, these institutions ensure that justice is served while upholding the core values of the U.S. Armed Forces.

The old prison also housed Lt. William Calley, who was convicted of murder over the My Lai Massacre in 1968 during the Vietnam War, and famed boxer Rocky Graziano, who received a nine-month sentence during World War II for going absent without leave after punching an officer.
Manning could add to the list, as could Maj. Nidal Hasan, who is on trial in the 2009 attack on Fort Hood that killed 13 people and wounded more than 30.
The inmates include ranks as high as lieutenant colonel. Fort Leavenworth said five service members are on death row, including, Hasan Akbar, convicted for the 2003 murder of two Army officers in Kuwait.
The prison also is where Sgt. Robert Bales will be housed after being convicted of killing 16 Afghan civilians during nighttime raids in 2012.
