About this map

Fort Bliss Military Reservation dominates this mid-century landscape in the heart of the Tularosa Valley. This area, mapped shortly after the war, reflects the extensive military expansion into the New Mexico desert. The sheet delineates the White Sands Proving Ground Military Reservation Boundary, a critical dividing line during the height of Cold War weapons testing.
