  • Schofield Barracks, 27Th Infantry Regiment
    #191 ROBERT KINZLER: SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, 27TH INFANTRY REGIMENT John Martini (JM): It's December 3, 1991. My name is Ranger John Martini from the National Park Service. We're doing [an] oral history interview videotape with Mr. Robert Kinzler. Mr. Kinzler was a solider stationed at Schofield Barracks, 27th Infantry Regiment on December 7, 1941. At that time, he was a Private Third Class radio operator. He was then nineteen years of age. This oral history videotape is being produced in conjunction with the National Park Service, USS ARIZONA Memorial and KHET-TV. So, thanks for coming to speak with us. And the first question I always ask is when did you enlist and where did you enlist? Robert Kinzler (RK): I enlisted on the 24th of June, 1940 at Newark, New Jersey, and requested service in Hawaii. My purpose in doing that was to try to win an appointment to West Point by attending the West Point prep school which was being conducted here, or at the Schofield Barracks at the time. They had another one at Fort Dix, New Jersey, but that was only a few miles from my home, so I opted for Hawaii. And it took three months to get here. I didn't arrive here until early September, 1940 on the USAT REPUBLIC, a transport, which brought me from the Brooklyn Navy Yard, Brooklyn Army base to Panama, to San Francisco, to Hawaii. I got here and they off loaded us from the ship, put us on trucks, drove us a few blocks to the Iwilei Railroad Station.

  • An Historical Overview of Vancouver Barracks, 1846-1898, with Suggestions for Further Research
    Part I, “Our Manifest Destiny Bids Fair for Fulfillment”: An Historical Overview of Vancouver Barracks, 1846-1898, with suggestions for further research Military men and women pose for a group photo at Vancouver Barracks, circa 1880s Photo courtesy of Clark County Museum written by Donna L. Sinclair Center for Columbia River History Funded by The National Park Service, Department of the Interior Final Copy, February 2004 This document is the first in a research partnership between the Center for Columbia River History (CCRH) and the National Park Service (NPS) at Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. The Park Service contracts with CCRH to encourage and support professional historical research, study, lectures and development in higher education programs related to the Fort Vancouver National Historic Site and the Vancouver National Historic Reserve (VNHR). CCRH is a consortium of the Washington State Historical Society, Portland State University, and Washington State University Vancouver. The mission of the Center for Columbia River History is to promote study of the history of the Columbia River Basin. Introduction For more than 150 years, Vancouver Barracks has been a site of strategic importance in the Pacific Northwest. Established in 1849, the post became a supply base for troops, goods, and services to the interior northwest and the western coast. Throughout the latter half of the nineteenth century soldiers from Vancouver were deployed to explore the northwest, build regional transportation and communication systems, respond to Indian-settler conflicts, and control civil and labor unrest. A thriving community developed nearby, deeply connected economically and socially with the military base. From its inception through WWII, Vancouver was a distinctly military place, an integral part of the city’s character.

  • Royal Artillery Barracks and Royal Military Repository Areas
    DRAFT CHAPTER 7 – ROYAL ARTILLERY BARRACKS AND ROYAL MILITARY REPOSITORY AREAS Lands above Woolwich and the Thames valley were taken for military use from 1773, initially for barracks facing Woolwich Common that permitted the Royal Regiment of Artillery to move out of the Warren. These were among Britain’s largest barracks and unprecedented in an urban context. The Board of Ordnance soon added a hospital (now Connaught Mews), built in 1778–80 and twice enlarged during the French Wars. Wartime exigencies also saw the Royal Artillery Barracks extended to their present astonishing length of more than a fifth of a mile in 1801–7, in front of a great grid of stables and more barracks, for more than 3,000 soldiers altogether. At the same time more land westwards to the parish boundary was acquired, permitting the Royal Military Repository to move up from the Warren in 1802 and, through the ensuing war, to reshape an irregular natural terrain for an innovative training ground, a significant aspect of military professionalization. The resiting there in 1818–20 of the Rotunda, a temporary royal marquee from the victory celebrations of 1814 at Carlton House recast as a permanent military museum, together with the remaking of adjacent training fortifications, settled the topography of a unique landscape that served training, pleasure-ground and commemorative purposes. There have been additions, such as St George’s Garrison Church in the 1860s, and rebuildings, as after bomb damage in the 1940s. More changes have come since the departure of the Royal Artillery in 2007 when the Regiment’s headquarters moved to Larkhill in Wiltshire.

  • Gravesend Blockhouse and the Clarendon
    I started out to investigate the Blockhouse and The Clarendon as two separate, neighbouring buildings of historical interest. Research soon revealed that both these buildings share an interwoven history, so it makes sense to present them together. In Medieval times there were no comprehensive arrangements in place for river defences on the Thames. There were some unconnected local or private defences, such as at East Tilbury and Cooling. Otherwise defence depended on an ad-hoc system of lookouts and beacons, and the hope that suitable military forces could be mustered in time if a threat was spotted. The weakness of this system was amply demonstrated in 1380, when a French fleet landed troops to sack Gravesend and Tilbury. Defending The River During the reign of Henry VIII a better planned and coordinated system of defences was established. The Gravesend Blockhouse, built in 1539/40, was part of this. Two other blockhouses were sited at Milton and Tilbury to provide an inner line of defence, and two at East Tilbury and Higham to provide an outer line. The blockhouses were arranged so that their cross fire would protect the whole width of the river, to enable them to stop ships, protect the upper and lower ferry crossings, and prevent troops landing. Construction An estimate from 1539 gives the cost of Gravesend Blockhouse as £211 13s 4d, and includes costs for 150,000 bricks, 200 tons of chalk and a large quantity of timber. It is thought the chalk was needed both for stabilising the water-logged site on which the blockhouse was built, and infilling for the walls.
