Catterick Garrison, which, at any one time, can house 1,700 recruits, is one of three Army centres running a trial text and online helpline.
Bullytext software is used in schools and other organisations and can now be accessed by recruits at Catterick, the Army's engineering school in Chatham in Kent and the Army training regiment in Bassingbourn, Cambridgeshire.
Lt Col Philip Jennings, chief of staff at the HQ School of Infantry at Catterick, said the text link was intended to complement anti-bullying systems already in place.
The trial runs until November and is aimed at enabling recruits, in the main aged from 16 to 21, to get help for themselves or for colleagues.
They already anonymously complete questionnaires about bullying and have other, informal, in-service points of contact for help .
The text link may bring a quicker response and, in practice, has been seen to act as a deterrent to bullies.
Young soldiers are also given leaflets about Leeds-born Daniel Farr, whose mother Lynn set up an anti-bullying trust after he died at the barracks at the age of 18.
