This is a story of the World War I and World War II mobilization barracks built by the Quartermaster Corps staff, contractors, union laborers, and professional advisors who, when everything hit the fan, did the impossible. Camp Devens was carved from stands of scrub pines in central Massachusetts in 1917 as one of 16 National Army Cantonments that were needed to mobilize an army for World War I .

In 90 days, a military city was planned, built, and occupied. And then as one war passed, troops went home, budgets.
