A propos de cet article

144 pages. Illustrations. Some curving of back cover. Includes Introduction; Bibliography; Black and White Maps; Map Sources, Camps, Forts, Barracks, etc. This is an unofficial listing compiled from a variety of official and unofficial sources. Its primary goal is to provide a guide, with locations, to named United States Army forts, camps, airfields, cantonments, redoubts, and batteries that were established between the time of the United States Army's organization (September 29, 1798) and the end of World War II, in 1945. No deliberate attempt has been made to include the equivalent facilities operated by other military services, nor unnamed United States Army facilities, nor short-term bivouac or encampment areas or battlefield posts. This is an exhaustive reference guide to more than 5,400 named American forts, camps, air fields, redoubts, batteries, and cantonments. These range from stockade forts employed by the early settlers for their own protection, to those captured from others and put to use by our own forces. It includes forts and outposts on our western frontiers, training camps, early flying fields, WWII fields of the Army Air Corps, and everything else. Included in this book are many illustrations, plus a listing of some of the personalities whose names have been applied to army forts and camps. Incorporated into the facilities listings is the wealth of listing data compiled by Francis B. Heitman (1903), thus making this the most well-rounded and virtually complete reference ever compiled of these facilities in the period covered. Tom Kneitel, W4XAA, better known to hams by his previous call sign K2AES, was editor emeritus of Popular Communications. Aside from serving as editor of Popular Communications, he had written for CB Horizons, S9 and Popular Electronics, and was the author of a number of radio hobbyist books on such subjects as scanning, CB radio and building electronics projects. In addition he published widely on other topics. He contributed to The Encyclopedia Americans and helped script training films for the U.S. Army Signal Corps. He was a member of the Army Signal Corps Association. It is understood that the communication requirements of Army installations contributed to his interest in compiling this incomparable reference work.…
