About this Collection

CSU Monterey Bay's Fort Ord historical images collection consists of photographs, postcards, and documents on the history of Fort Ord during the 20th century. A joint project of the CSUMB Library and the Fort Ord Museum and Archive, the collection focuses on the role of Fort Ord as a training facility, beginning in World War I and continuing until the 1990s. Digitized images include photographs, postcards and documents of soldiers in training and the base environment. One set of images, by photographer Dennis Sun, depicts the variety of murals that once covered the buildings of Fort Ord during the period from 1950 to 2000. View collection guide.
