1957 Map of Fort Hood

About this map

The Fort Hood Military Reservation dominates this mid-century landscape, capturing the expansion of the post during the Cold War era. Residential areas such as McNair Village and Chaffee Village stand near the base of the Blackwell Mountains, while training grounds and infrastructure extend across the Coryell and Bell county line. The terrain is characterized by a series of crossings and gaps through the hills, including Middle Crossing on Cowhouse Creek and the notable Graham Gap near Jack Mountain.
