About
Camp Essex/Clipper were established in 1942.? It had two groups assigned to it including the the 93rd Infantry Division which was an all-black division. After the 93rd division left the camp in May of 1944, it was occupied by Italian POWs. Included at the camp was a 500,000-gallon water reservoir, which is still visible today. You can still see rock-lined walkways, but they are diminishing. There were also reported ranges around the camp, but no traces are present.
