A photo of a gas pumping station is shown March 15, 1943, at Fort McCoy, Wis.
The photo is from a real property book that was found in 2020 by a Fort McCoy archaeologist.
The installation was called Camp McCoy at that time.
Fort McCoy was established in 1909 and its motto is to be the “Total Force Training Center.” Located in the heart of the upper Midwest, Fort McCoy is the only U.S. Army installation in Wisconsin.
The installation has provided support and facilities for the field and classroom training of more than 100,000 military personnel from all services nearly every year since 1984.
