Fort Buchanan

Fort Buchanan is the name of two United States Army forts:

  • Fort Buchanan, Arizona, is a former United States Army base in Arizona to control land purchased in the Gadsden Purchase
  • Fort Buchanan, Puerto Rico is the only active U.S. Army installation in the Caribbean, home of the 65th regional readiness command (not to be confused with the 65th infantry regiment which has its headquarters at Cayey Puerto Rico)

Famous quotes containing the words fort and/or buchanan:

    “Across Parker Avenue from the fort is the Site of the Old Gallows, where 83 men “stood on nothin’, a-lookin’ up a rope.” The platform had a trap wide enought to “accommodate” 12 men, but half that number was the highest ever reached. On two occasions six miscreants were executed. There were several groups of five, some quartets and trios.”
