  • Historic Context for Department of Defense Facilities World War Ii Permanent Construction
    DEPARTMeNT OF DEFENSE FACILITIES- WORLD WAR II PERMANENT CONSTRUhttp://aee-www.apgea.army.mil:8080/prod/usaee!eqlconserv/ww2pel.htm ~ - Delivery Order 21 Contract No. DACW31-89-D-0059 US Army Corps of Engineers-Baltimore District HISTORIC CONTEXT FOR DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE FACILITIES WORLD WAR II PERMANENT CONSTRUCTION May 1997 R. Christopher Goodwin and Associates, Inc. 241 E. Fourth Street Suite 100 Frederick, Maryland 21701 FINAL REPORT June 1997 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Historic Context for Department of Defense (DoD) World War H Permanent Construction combines two previous reports: Historic Context for Department of Defense Facilities World War H Permanent Construction (Hirrel et al., draft June 1994) and Methodology for World War H Permanent Construction (Whelan, draft August 1996). This project was designed to meet the following objectives: • To analyze and synthesize historical data on the military's permanent construction program during World War H. • To assist DoD cultural resource managers and other DoD personnel with fulfilling their responsibilities under the National Historic Preservation Act (NHP A) of 1966, as amended. Section 110 of the NHPA requires federal agencies to identity, evaluate, and nominate to the National Register of Historic Places historic properties under their jurisdiction. Section 110 Guidelines, developed by the National Park Service, U.S. Department ofthe Interior, direct federal agencies to establish historic contexts to identifY and evaluate historic properties (53FR 4727-46). • To develop a consistent historic context framework that provides comparative data and background information in a cost-effective manner, which will allow DoD personnel to assess the relative significance of World War II military construction.

Getty Committee May 5, 2005 Approved by Town Council May 9, 2005 1 Executive Summary In 1994, the original Fort Getty Master Plan was written by the Fort Getty Re-use Committee as part of an investigation of the best way to manage the campground at Fort Getty park. In 2004, although the campground is a major element in our discussion of the park, it is not the primary emphasis. In public forums and a citizen survey, Jamestown residents have expressed an interest in the park beyond its revenue generating capacities. In addition, as the Comprehensive Plan reports, Jamestown’s growing population possesses an equally growing demand for water based amenities and facilities for which Fort Getty park is ideally suited. In the 2004 Fort Getty Master Plan, our first goal is to improve residents’ use of the park. Our second goal indicates the way to do so: by developing additional (and improving the existing) water dependent and water enhanced active and passive recreational opportunities at the park. And our last goal suggests the means by which such goals are accomplished: ensure revenues. Our primary recommendation emerges from our third goal. It is essential to develop a fund for Fort Getty dedicated to capital improvements and repairs at the park.

  • Coast Artillery Companies 1901-1924
    Reference Guide 433 Coast Artillery Companies 1901-1924 Bolling W. Smith The following listing of serially numbered companies of coast artillery gives their locations and changes in designations from their creation in 1901 until 1924, when the separate company numbers were finally abolished. This list is best used in conjunction with “Coast Artillery Organization: A Brief Overview,” in the May 2008 Coast Defense Journal (Vol. 22 No. 2). Redesignations were effective in the year shown. The year shown for locations indicates that the company was at the new post in that year, but could have arrived there during the previous year. Units in parentheses in the headings indicate the units from which the companies were formed, either by redesignation of lettered companies of the seven artillery regiments in 1901, or by splitting existing companies of coast artillery. 1st Company (A/1st Artillery) 1916 – Fort Wint, PI 1901 – Fort Dade, FL 1917 – 13th Company, CD Manila & Subic Bays 1902 – Fort De Soto, FL 1917 – Fort Mills, PI 1907 – Fort Armstrong, TH 1922 – 4th Company, CAC 1908 – Fort Levett, ME 1924 – D/1st CA Regiment (HD), inactive 1910 – Fort McKinley, ME 1916 – Temp., Fort Sam Houston 5th Company (F/1st Artillery) 1916 – 1st Company, Fort McKinley, ME 1901 – Fort Screven, GA 1917 – 1st Company, CD Portland 1907 – Fort Williams, ME 1917 – A/6 Provisional Artillery Regiment 1916 – 2nd Company, Fort Williams, ME 1918 – A/51st Artillery Regiment, CAC 1917 – H/6th Provisional Artillery Regiment, CAC 1922 – 1st Company, CAC (additional designation) 1918 – H/51st Artillery Regiment, CAC 1924 – A/51st CA Regiment (TD), Fort Eustis, VA 1922 – 5th Company, CAC (additional designation) 1924 – F/43rd Artillery Regiment (Ry), inactive 2nd Company (B/1st Artillery) 1901 – Fort Trumbull, CT 6th Company (G/1st Artillery) 1903 – Fort H.G.
