“Fort Drum: The First 100 Years” tells the story of how a dusty cavalry camp in the early
1900s evolved into a modern marvel of military training for the soldiers of the United
States Army.
Created as a national training site by President Theodore Roosevelt, Pine Camp grew into
Camp Drum and ultimately became Fort Drum. Today, the base is home to the 10th
Mountain Division, a premier U.S. Army unit whose troops have served in Iraq and
Afghanistan. Fort Drum is one of the largest and most well-equipped military installations
in the Eastern part of the United States. It is the economic
engine of Northern New York and it introduced cultural diversity into a previously isolated
region.
Over the course of a century, soldiers who trained at the legendary base have shaped the
history of America and the world.
