  No caption, c. 1917. Group of men posing on 6" Howitzers at Camp Kearney. William McCarthy is standing in a dark suit just beneath the barrel of the middle gun. Camp Kearney was established by the U.S. Army in 1917 just north of San Diego. The post was largely abandoned by the government in 1920, used as a military and civilian airfield. It did not see increased military service again until the 1930s.

  Caption: "Fort Casey Barracks," c. 1908-1912. View of two barracks buildings at Fort Casey, located on Whidbey Island in Puget Sound. Construction began on the fort in 1897. Fort Casey was part of the "triangle of fire," three coastal defense fortifications (Fort Casey, Fort Worden, and Fort Flagler) guarding the entrance to Puget Sound. The U.S. Army used the facility until the 1950s, when the fort was decommissioned. The area is now a state park.
