Ft . Ord is still used for family housing these days for people stationed at the Presidio of Monterey. They’re slowly tearing down the older houses and replacing them, but there a fair number of older houses left, mainly for junior enlisted and their Families

“Ft . Ord is still used for family housing these days for people stationed at the Presidio of Monterey. They’re slowly tearing down the older houses and replacing them, but there a fair number of older houses left, mainly for junior enlisted and their Families.”

I first visited Ft. Ord about 1958-59 when my Uncle was stationed there, as a then Captain in the Corps of Engineers. They lived in office family housing near the golf course. I think those structures are still there, on the edge of Seaside.

Back to Ord, myself, to do basic and AIT in 1969.
