About this map

Martinsburg serves as a bustling hub in the eastern panhandle during the mid-1940s, its urban grid tightly packed between the Baltimore and Ohio and Cumberland Valley railroads. The presence of the Newton D Baker General Hospital U S Army and the Martinsburg Airport underscores the strategic military and logistical importance of the area during the war years. To the east, the landscape transitions into the winding valley of Opequon Creek, where topography dictates a more rural pattern of limestone quarries and scattered family-named landmarks.
