1954 Map of Petronila
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The coastal plains of South Texas reveal a landscape defined by petroleum extraction and post-war aviation in this mid-1950s survey. The area around Driscoll and Petronila is densely marked by energy infrastructure, including the Clara Driscoll Oil Field and the Luby Oil Field. A distinctive network of decommissioned military sites, such as Naval Auxiliary Field 32 and Naval Auxiliary Field 22, speaks to the region's intense strategic importance for pilot training during the preceding decade.
