Fisher's Island, Camp
Description: Camp Fisher’s Island was a World War One era training station, used by the forces of the United States Army. The camp was named after Major General Charles D. Fisher, who was formerly the army’s Chief of Ordnance. The station was used to train and mobilize American forces during both world wars. Camp Fisher’s Island also hosted the Long Island Coast Guard and was eventually converted into a recreational space after the decommissioning of the camp in the years following the Second World War. Today, the former camp is the site of a condominium complex.
