- Fort_Strong abstract "Fort Strong is a former U.S. Army Coast Artillery fort that occupied the northerly third of Long Island in Boston harbor. The modernization of the fort during the Endicott period of expansion in U.S. coast defense resulted in the installation of five 10-inch guns (in two batteries), two 4-inch guns, and 10 3-inch guns (two in each of five batteries). Before WW1, a large station for handling submarine mines and an anti-aircraft battery of 3-inch guns were also added to the fort's defenses. At its peak, before WW1, the fort was probably manned by over 1,000 soldiers. During WW2, two batteries of 3-inch guns (Basinger and Stevens) defended channel minefields, but the big guns and other 3-inch batteries (save for the AA guns) were decommissioned. Declared surplus in 1947, the fort was redeveloped in 2005-2009 for a children's summer camp. Formerly, it was also known as Long Island Military Reservation.Endicott period batteries which were located here:Battery Hitchcock (1899–1939)Battery Ward (1899–1939)Battery Drum (1899–1917)Battery Smyth (1906–1921)Battery Stevens (1906–1946)Battery Taylor (1906–1942)Battery Basinger (1901–1947)↑".
