Fort Bragg: Primary Sources

Braxton Bragg

I chose this picture so that my students could see who Braxton Bragg was. Also, it shows him wearing a Confederate uniform.

Barracks at Camp Bragg; 1919

I chose this picture so that students may see how barracks looked in 1919. I would compare this photo with a recent photo of barracks at Fort Bragg.

Barracks at Fort Bragg;2010

Fort Bragg Soldiers

I chose this picture to see how different the way of living has changed since WWII.

Hospital

I chose this picture to show how big the hospital was on post. I would have added a picture of the current hospital, but didn’t go back to Fort Bragg last weekend =(.

Womack Hospital; 2010

NC Historical Marker

I chose this picture because it shows a brief history about Fort Bragg. Also, students could know the meaning of these signs and why they are all significant.

Visit the Museum

This is a photo of the 82nd Airborne museum that has a lot of Fort Bragg’s history in it. I chose this picture so students could visit it one day or we could take a class field trip.

The End!
