The United States Navy Service School at the Ford Motor Company River Rouge plant in Dearborn, Michigan
This is a picture of the personal taken on Nov. 22, 1941. The largest of the many Ford instructional programs during World War II was the United States Navy Service School at the Rouge plant in Dearborn. A year before Pearl Harbor, on December 6, 1940, ground was broken for the training of navy men to become machinist's mates. Within forty days of the start of construction the first contingent of 150 students took up quarters in the first barracks building. There would soon be eight barracks, each with 250 bunks, to accommodate two thousand men. Related facilities included an administration building, mess hall, galley; recreation building, canteen, reading room, and a power plant for steam and electricity. A sixty-bed hospital was soon added.
This is a panoramic, in a black frame. It measures 46.5 x 12 inches.
