Chapter 4 (continued)
Gila River Relocation Center

Security Features

No remnants of the military police sentry posts at the north and south entrances to the relocation center reserve or of the temporary watch tower are visible today. Notable, however is the excellent condition of the former military police compound. The large foundation of the vehicle repair shop remains (Figure 4.105). In addition, there are other foundation remnants, gravel walkways, rock alignments, and an impressively landscaped flagpole base (Figures 4.106-4.107).
