1970 Map of Fort Barrancas

About this map

Pensacola Naval Air Station dominates this coastal landscape, showing the military infrastructure of the mid-20th century alongside deep-rooted fortifications. The map details the operational layout of Forrest Sherman Field and Chevalier Field, while preserving the footprints of older defensive works like Fort Barrancas and the nearby Fort Redoubt Ruins. This intersection of modern naval aviation and 19th-century coastal defense is further anchored by the Barrancas National Cemetery and the U S Naval Rifle Range.
