World War II in Color: 16mm footage of 261st Coast Artillery at Fort DuPont in Delaware City
This video is 16mm film footage in color taken at Fort DuPont and surrounding area in 1941 by a member of the 261st Coast Artillery Battalion, Delaware Army National Guard. This digital copy of the original 16mm film was given to me by a descendant of the soldier, who served in the 261st during World War Two. It features the building of the cantonment barracks, which later served as housing for German POWs in 1944 and 1945. The footage also shows a baseball game at an unknown location and marching on the parade grounds at Fort DuPont. The area where soldiers are conducting war exercises is likely the dredge spoil area near the Finnegan farm, which is located across Port Penn Road, southwest from the main gate at Fort DuPont.

West Coast Artillery Post - 10-inch Gun Firing
Wonder what 10-inch guns look like when they fire? The origins of this historic film are somewhat unknown; however, the gun in the video is nearly identical to the one on display at Fort Casey State Park. It's possible this footage is from Fort Worden in Port Townsend or another west coast artillery post.
Archaeology at the Presidio Officers' Club
No place in the Presidio is more beloved than the historic Officers' Club, located on the Main Post. Over the course 235 years, the building has played many roles. It served as offices and living quarters for the fort commander, as a post headquarters, as officers' quarters, and as a social center for the Spanish, Mexican, and United States armies. With each new use the building has grown and evolved, like the Presidio itself.
Today, the oldest and most revered building in the Presidio (and one of the two oldest in San Francisco) is undergoing a comprehensive historic rehabilitation that will revive its original grandeur and restore it as a focal point for visitors and as a venue for cultural events.
This video describes the extensive archaeological investigations that have occured during the historic preservation process. The video features Kari Jones, Presidio Trust archaeologist.
The Officers' Club will reopen as a community and social hub housing the Presidio Heritage Center in 2013. The project is expected to receive a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.
