My father did his army basic training at Fort Ord in 1940.

When I went to the foreign language school at the DLI in nearby Monterey in 1983 - 1984, I drove him through the fort. He said it looked almost exactly the same as in 1940.

I wonder when they will clear the artillery range in the hills to the east?
