MS. 129: Camp Edwards Postcard Collection
Camp Edwards Postcard Collection MS. 129 Sturgis Library Archives Town and Local History Collection Camp Edwards Postcard Collection MS. 129 Extent: 1 folder in a box with multiple collections (MS. 127-129) Scope and Content Note: The collection consists of 46 postcards showing a variety of scenes in Cape Cod’s Camp Edwards in Falmouth, Massachusetts. The images depict Camp life, buildings, training, troops, and more. Of special note is a miniature muslin mail bag with leather top which holds 8 miniature postcards. Historical Note: [The text of this note is excerpted from Wikipedia’s entry on Camp Edwards]. Camp Edwards is a United States military training installation which is located in western Barnstable County, Massachusetts. It forms the largest part of Joint Base Cape Cod, which also includes Otis Air National Guard Base and Coast Guard Air Station Cape Cod. It was named after Major General Clarence Edwards. It is home to the 3rd Battalion, 126th Aviation. In 1931 the National Guard deemed Camp Devens to be too small to meet their needs and began to look for a new training area, and two years later Cape Cod was identified as having a suitable environment to build a new camp. Camp Edwards was officially dedicated in 1938. In 1940, the U.S. Army leased Camp Edwards as a training facility as part of its mobilization strategy for World War II. The Army undertook significant construction which helped to expand Camp Edwards from a rustic military post to a small city, overflowing with new GIs. The new plan called for new capacity to house 30,000 soldiers and was completed in just four months. -

UNIVERSITY OF MAINE WORLD WAR II IN MEMORIAM DEDICATION In this book are the records of those sons of Maine who gave their lives in World War II. The stories of their lives are brief, for all of them were young. And yet, behind the dates and the names of places there shines the record of courage and sacrifice, of love, and of a devotion to duty that transcends all thought of safety or of gain or of selfish ambition. These are the names of those we love: these are the stories of those who once walked with us and sang our songs and shared our common hope. These are the faces of our loved ones and good comrades, of sons and husbands. There is no tribute equal to their sacrifice; there is no word of praise worthy of their deeds. -

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL RECESS COMMITTEE ON AVIATION. PART I. Mabch 18. 1953. To the Honorable Senate and House of Representatives. The Special Joint Committee on Aviation, consisting of members of the Committee on Aeronautics, herewith submits its report. As first established in 1951 by Senate Order No. 614, there were three members of the Senate and seven mem- bers of the House of the Committee on Aeronautics to sit during the recess for the purpose of making an investiga- tion and study relative to certain matters pertaining to aeronautics and also to consider current documents Senate, No. 4 and so much of House, No. 1232 as pertains to the continued development of Logan Airport, including constructions of certain buildings and other necessary facilities thereon, and especially the advisability of the construction of a gasoline and oil distribution system at said airport. Senate, No. 4 was a petition of Michael LoPresti, establishing a Massachusetts Aeronautics Au- thority and transferring to it the power, duties and obligations of the Massachusetts Aeronautics Commis- sion and State Airport Management Board. Members appointed under this Order were: Senators Cutler, Hedges and LoPresti; Representatives Bradley, Enright, Bryan, Gorman, Barnes, Snow and Campbell. The underground gasoline distribution system as pro- posed in 1951 by the State Airport Management Board seemed the most important matter to be studied. It was therefore voted that a subcommittee view the new in- stallation of such a system at the airport in Pittsburgh, Pa. -
The Closing of Military Bases in New England: Does the Military Ever Really Leave?
John Mullin, et al., Int. J. of Herit. Archit., Vol. 2, No. 3 (2018) 425–433 THE CLOSING OF MILITARY BASES IN NEW ENGLAND: DOES THE MILITARY EVER REALLY LEAVE? JOHN MULLIN1, ZEENAT KOTVAL-K2 & ZENIA KOTVAL2 1University of Massachusetts, USA. 2Michigan State University, USA. ABSTRACT The physical and cultural patinas of military places are so fixed in the collective memories of New Eng- landers that well after closure, they remain part of our culture. At times, it may be that some military reserve functions remain, some military research is ongoing, or simply that the land, long ago con- taminated by fuel or the debris of weapons firing, is permanently off-limits. Other times, it may be the rigid precise layout of the barracks square, solidly built structures, or the placement of historic objects. The fact remains that military bases remain military in the region’s collective memory well after active forces have left. The paper begins with our examination of how New England military installations have been transformed since World War II. There are tens of installations that have been closed or dramati- cally changed since that time. We then determine, analyse and explain the characteristics that resulted in their having a continued military presence. Finally, we summarize our results to date. Keywords: base closings, military legacy, repurposing military bases. 1 INTRODUCTION Over the past 20 years, we have been involved, as academic researchers and planning consult- ants, in analysing the impacts of actual and potential military base closings throughout New England. At times, this work was simply to assess property records for the Boston Navy Yard, Massachusetts; undertake citizen participation exercises for the Portsmouth’s Naval Ship- yard, Kittery, Maine; prepare a master plan for Camp Edwards, Cape Cod, Massachusetts; analyse the market potential for development at Quonset Point, Rhode Island or determine fiscal impacts for development at Fort Devens, Massachusetts. -

Strickland Interview Summary MilColl OH 833 Interviewee: Wilton W. Strickland Interviewer: Sion Harrington III Interview Date: February 11, 2003 Interview Location: Tarboro, N.C. Interview Runtime: 1:28:07 Biographical Sketch Wilton Wayne Strickland was born on June 10, 1934, in Nashville, N.C., to William Berry and Tempe Vada Lewis Strickland. He was the youngest of eight siblings, and was raised on a farm in Nash County, N.C. He attended North Carolina State College (present-day North Carolina State University) from 1952 to 1956, where he participated in the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC). Strickland entered active duty in the U.S. Air Force in February 1957. Initially an Aviation Cadet recruit, Strickland was unable to continue with the program because he had married shortly before he went on active duty, which went against the Aviation Cadet Training program rules. He reverted to enlisted status, and attended basic training at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. Strickland then attended mechanics training at Sheppard Air Force Base in Wichita County, Texas. He served as an air craft mechanic in the 98th Bombardment Wing at Lincoln Air Force Base, Nebraska. In 1959, Strickland entered Officers Candidate School at Lackland AFB, and would receive his commission on February 15, 1960. He then attended navigator pre-flight training at Harlingen Air Force Base, Texas; bombing navigation training at Mather Air Force Base in Sacramento County, California; and aircrew survival training at Stead Air Force Base in Washoe County, Nevada. -
Citizens Protection Classes / Wind Zones / Bcegs
CITIZENS PROTECTION CLASSES / WIND ZONES / BCEGS FIRE PROTECTION CLASSES These pages provide Public Fire Protection Class (1-10) based on ISO’s Public Protection Class Manual. • City, Town or Fire District listings are organized alphabetically by county. The indicated Protection Class contemplates certain distances from the responding fire station and the hydrant. Remember, it is the responding fire department that governs this rating, not the mailing address. • If a fire protection class rating does not have a plus “+” the stated class applies to all class rated risks within the boundaries of the city, town or fire district. • If a fire protection class has a plus “+” the class shown applies only if within 5 road miles of responding fire station and within 1000 feet from hydrant; � Class “8B” community water supply must deliver uninterrupted minimum fire flow of 200 gpm for 20 minutes. For rating purposes a grade “8” will be applied. � Class “9” if within 5 road miles of responding fire station but over 1000 feet from hydrant; � Class “10” if over 5 road miles from responding fire station. Class “10” also applies to unincorporated areas not contained within a Fire District or OPA. Note 1: Cities and towns not included in the listing may be within Fire Districts Note 2: Hydrant distance requirement does not apply when an alternate creditable water supply is available. These exceptions will be noted under specific communities where applicable. Note 3: The PPC ratings in “()” have been added for ease of reference. In most cases, the PPC is cross-referenced to a corresponding Fire District. -
