Circa 1944... Here I am at Ridgeview, the married housing quarters, Freeman Field, Seymour, Indiana. Freeman Field was an Army Air Force base established in 1942 as a pilot training airfield.
Note the "Ice" sign in the window, used to tell the iceman how much ice to deliver for the ice box.
In 1942, the federal government decided to build an Army base near Seymour to train military pilots in single-engine aircraft and helicopters.
In addition to the military personnel to be stationed at the base, it was estimated that about 1,250 civilians would be needed for the construction of the base and permanent jobs on the base after its completion.
Seymour had a population of 7,500, but only six empty houses were there in 1942. The business association in Seymour identified the availability of about 1,000 rooms in private homes. However, many of the rooms were in homes without modern conveniences.
A decision was made to build a housing project with 350 units near Freeman Field. The apartments would be for civilians and married military personnel up to the rank of captain. The project was named Ridgeview.
The base and housing were completed in 1943. A total of 4,000 pilots received their wings before the base was considered surplus in 1945.
