In the game
The American campaign opens with Private Martin’s paratrooper training, a compressed take on the camp where real airborne recruits trained.
History in brief
Built in the 1930s for the National Guard, the camp was taken over by the US Army in 1942 as an airborne training centre, and thousands of paratroopers passed through it on their way to Europe.
The place today
Only a few original structures survive. The site has been restored as a heritage and visitor site with memorials to the men who trained there.
