World War II Newspapers

This collection of newspapers published by the U.S. Army Basic Training Center #10 (BTC-10), later the Overseas Replacement Depot (ORD), documents life on an urban army base during the final years of World War II. As the largest military base within city limits in America, BTC-10/ORD was an important element in Greensboro's growth and development during and after the war. The newspaper features base and military news, coverage of dances and other social events, and advertisements for local businesses that catered to the soldiers, providing not only an important record of military history but also a glimpse into the social and cultural life of Greensboro during the period.
