The U.S. Army Recruiting Command and its soldiers, families, civilians and contractors are the Army’s trusted ambassadors to the American people. We “provide the strength” from the 1,400-plus recruiting stations nationwide and overseas.
Recruiting is one of the most critical jobs in the Army and it’s an extremely important mission. USAREC is a geographically disperse unit, located throughout the 48 continental states, Hawaii, Alaska, U.S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Europe, Guam, Saipan, Japan and Korea.
Due to the geographical dispersal of the units within USAREC, soldiers and families may find themselves living many miles from a military installation. For some, transitioning into a civilian community can be difficult.
USAREC stands proud knowing we have soldiers and families like you who are up for a challenge. Ensuring the quality of life for our soldiers, families, civilians and contractors is as important as the annual mission. Taking care of each other only makes us stronger. As a team – with soldiers, families, civilians and contractors hand in hand – we will strive daily to achieve success. We pledge to give you all we have to ensure your time in USAREC is nothing short of rewarding.
The Seattle Recruiting Battalion serves the nation and an Army at war by recruiting the best-qualified men and women from Alaska and the Pacific Northwest. At all times, in all activities, the Battalion conducts itself in accordance with Army values and provides a professional environment with a genuine high quality of life to all assigned personnel.

Sponsorship
Every soldier assigned to the Seattle Recruiting Battalion will have a sponsor assigned to them to help facilitate in processing and ensure a smooth integration into their respective company and station. Once the battalion command sergeant major has determined the initial assignment location the soldier should call their company first sergeant to introduce themselves and receive the name and phone number of their sponsor.
