Designed by Spanish engineer Ignacio Daza, and constructed between 1672 and 1695 of local Coquina stone, the Castillo de San Marcos is the oldest masonry fort in the Continental United States, and the oldest remaining building in St. Augustine. The fort’s construction was ordered by Spanish Royal Governor Francisco de la Guerra y de la Vega, then in control of Florida, after a 1668 raid by English Privateer Robert Searle did extensive damage to the city and the previous wooden fort. Construction started under the administration of Governor Manuel de Cendoya, with the first stones being laid in 1672. The fort saw its first military engagement in 1702, when South Carolina Governor James Moore attacked St. Augustine, burning the town to the ground, but retreating rather than taking the fort by force. Starting in 1738, the interior was reconfigured, with vaulted stone ceilings replacing the original wooden ones, and an additional seven feet was added to the height of the structure as a result. In 1740, the fort was again attacked, this time by Georgia Governor James Oglethorpe, and again, was not taken by force. The fort remained in use by the Spanish to defend the city of St. Augustine and their foothold on the mainland of the North American continent until 1763, when Florida was transferred to the British by the Treaty of Paris, concluding the Seven Years’ War. Under the British, the fort continued to be used for military purposes, though the name was anglicized to Fort St. Mark. Upon the transfer of Florida back to Spain in 1783, the fort reverted to the name of Castillo de San Marcos, which remained the official name of the structure throughout the Second Spanish Period. In 1819, the Adams–OnÃs Treaty was signed, which sold Florida to the United States, with a transition period beginning that ended with full control of the territory being handed to the United States in 1821. Upon transfer to the United States, the Castillo de San Marcos was renamed Fort Francis Marion, after American Revolutionary War Hero and South Carolina native Francis Marion. The fort was utilized by the United States to incarcerate prisoners who were members of several Native American tribes, including the Seminole during the Seminole Wars in the early 19th Century, most notable among them being Chief Osceola, and members of western Native American Tribes, including the Kiowa, Chiricahua Apache, Warm Springs Apache, and Cheyenne, in the late 19th Century. The fort is the first place where Ledger Art, created by members of Plains tribes, was recorded. The fort fell into Confederate hands in 1861 at the start of the Civil War, but was quickly retaken by Union forces in 1862, and remained in the possession of the United States until the end of the war. In 1898, the fort was utilized to house imprisoned deserters of the Spanish-American War, with the usage of the fort as an active duty base ceasing in 1900. In 1924, the fort was designated as a National Monument, and was finally deactivated in 1933, after over two and a half centuries of continuous usage as a military installation. The site was subsequently turned over to the National Park Service, whom continue to operate the site. In 1942, via an act of congress, the original name of the structure, the Castillo de San Marcos, was restored. The fort was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966, and remains one of the most popular tourist attractions in all of Florida.

The 176th Engineer Brigade, 36th Infantry Division welcomed Col. Kevin Crawford as the new Chaos brigade commander at a ceremony April 24, 2022 at Camp Mabry in Austin, Texas. Crawford assumed command from Col. Robert Crockem after serving two years as the commander.
Engineer Archie Shafer came to Spencerport during his time as a surveyor on the 1000 Ton Barge Canal project in the early 1900s; he liked it so much he stayed, opened a store and raised a family. In 2003, one of Shafer’s descendants, Penny Shafer Pero, donated a collection of Shafer’s papers and photographs to the Town of Ogden. Shafer, an amateur photographer, kept a photo journal of his work along the Canal and the collection contains many behind-the-scenes shots of the Barge Canal work. This photo is part of that collection.
Engineers played an important role in the building of the Erie Canal in the early 1800s, as well as in its reconstruction 100 years later. Constructing a waterway through some of the most dense wilderness in the northeast required men who were logical but creative thinkers. These men devised a lever and winch system that allowed them to fell up to 40 huge trees a day; if required to use the conventional axe and saw methods, it would have taken decades to remove as many trees. They also constructed another type of winch which they used to yank up stumps. This contraption was said to have had a 30 foot axle and 16 foot wheels — a forerunner to the monster machines of today! Perhaps the most serious setback these early engineers encountered was the lack of waterproof cement available in the United States in the early 1800s. The only waterproof cement available at the time was manufactured in Europe and obtaining it would have delayed the project and driven up the cost substantially. Engineer Canvass White saved the day when he developed his own waterproof material using limestone found along the canal bed.

Soldiers of the Utah Guard’s 624th Engineers Return from Afghanistan
The approximately 140 soldiers of the Utah National Guard’s 624th Engineer Company, 1457th Engineer Battalion, return to Utah from their 12-month deployment to Afghanistan Thursday, April 25, via charter aircraft at the Utah Air National Guard Base in Salt Lake City.
The 624th is based in Springville, with detachments in Price and Vernal. Its mission in Afghanistan was to perform vertical construction (structures and buildings) in the U.S. Central Command area of operations in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
Twenty-seven babies (25 single births and two sets of twins) were born to wives of 624th Soldiers during the unit’s deployment to Afghanistan. These 25 Soldiers (15 of whom are first-time fathers) will be seeing their infant children for the first time on Thursday.
Soldiers arrived from overseas at Fort Hood, Texas, earlier this month and have been undergoing demobilization processing.
