A scene from 1942 is shown where the cantonment area of then-Camp McCoy, Wis., is being constructed. This photo of a photo is from an undermined date in 1942. However, according to Army history, actual building and grading operations for the erection of the hundreds of buildings in the "New Camp McCoy" began March 20, 1942, although the original survey by a corps of engineers was made in July 1941. Authorization for construction was given by the War Department on Feb. 9, 1942. (U.S. Army Historical Photo)
