Two World War II-era barracks that were moved from the 1600 block at Fort McCoy, Wis., are shown next to each other May 5, 2023, in the 1700 block at the installation where they will be permanently reset for troop use later in the year. Contractors with JMJ Construction of New Lisbon, Wis., along with support from Heritage Movers of Blue River, Wis., moved the buildings on Feb. 24 and March 2. The plan is to relocate the buildings to the new locations before the ground thaws, then lift them onto the new foundations and complete the remaining work by summer 2023. This is the first time in Fort McCoy’s history that barracks building have be moved like this. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T. Sturkol, Public Affairs Office, Fort McCoy, Wis.)
