Schofield Barracks was established on December 4, 1908, with the arrival of Captain Joseph C Castner and his construction of a temporary cantonment (headquarters and quarters) on the Waianae-Uka military reservation – first, tents for officers and soldiers; then, temporary wooden barracks. The temporary facility was informally referred to as Castner Village; some called it the Leilehua Barracks (after the Leilehua Plain on which it is located.) 4th US Cavalry Troop L - Temporary quarters at Castner Village while their permanent barracks quad was being built at Schofield Barracks by the 3rd Engineers.

Salvage Sailor Posted March 7, 2020 Author Share #74 Posted March 7, 2020 The School of Fire - Schofield Barracks, H.T. Office of the Commandant Here are some interesting 4th US Cavalry documents for several reasons. First off, the School of Fire "OFFICIAL" is rarely seen. Even more obscure is the unit of the Commandant, the 32nd US Infantry Regiment. The 32nd Regiment was first organized on 7 August 1916, on Oahu, Hawaii from elements of the 1st and 2nd Infantry Regiments. At its activation, it was known as "The Queen's Own" Regiment, a title bestowed by the last queen of Hawaii, Liliuokalani. During World War I, units of the 32nd Regiment were used to escort German prisoners of war being transferred to the United States from Hawaii (Mostly from the SMS GEIER, or "Vulture", which was interned in Honolulu and placed under guard by the 1st & 2nd Infantry Regiments as noted in earlier posts). On 20 July 1918, the 32nd was transferred to Camp Kearny, San Diego, California, where it became a part of the 32nd Infantry Brigade, 16th Infantry Division. A short time later, many of the Regiment's men were transferred to the 82nd Infantry Regiment and remained with this organization until it was demobilized in 1919. Another item of note, the second document is signed by the Acting Commandant, a Captain from the African American 25th US Infantry Regiment then posted in Hawaii. The Trooper is Sergeant James Custer of Troop M, the weapons troop, who completed the Machine Gun and Gas courses at the School of Fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
