About this map

Camp Hulen occupies a prominent position on the shoreline of Turtle Bay and Tres Palacios Bay in this mid-century topographic survey of the Texas coast. The map illustrates a complex coastal environment where freshwater systems like Buttermilk Slough and Turtle Creek meet the expansive waters of Matagorda Bay. Significant aviation and communication infrastructure is present, including the Palacios Municipal Airport and the Palacios Radio Range Station, reflecting the area's strategic importance during and after the war years.
