U.S. Inductees
Our last photo is undated and shows some U.S. inductees getting their first showers as soldiers.
The crew cuts make me think it was post-World War II, but the plumbing looks older.
The US hastily built a lot of barracks and training centers during the war, and after the war, most were either given to local governments or torn down. Some of my pals who were in the Boy Scouts stayed in these barracks during Jamborees in the 1960s and said they were fairly primitive. The plumbing would have been the absolute minimum for enlisted men-Dee Exx
Several of the ranchers in the area where I grew up bought disused barracks for next to nothing in the 50s and 60s and had them moved to their property. They used them for everything from storage buildings to housing. The plumbing always had to be completely redone and sometimes the wiring as well.
I always enjoy these military days. Thanks, Jerry.
