Fort Riley

Fort Riley, en Kansas (Estados Unidos), es el lugar donde se observó por primera vez la gripe española el 11 de marzo de 1918.

Es una instalación del Ejército de los Estados Unidos, construida en enero de 1853, localizada al noreste de Kansas, junto al río Kansas, entre las poblaciones de Junction City y Manhattan. Su superficie es de 407 km², en los condados de Geary y Riley. El nombre proviene del General Mayor Bennet C. Riley, que lideró la primera escolta militar que protegía las obras del ferrocarril de Santa Fé.
