CAMPAMENTO SANTIAGO
(taken from Wikipedia)
(English: Camp Santiago) is a military training installation controlled by the
Puerto Rico National Guard
on 12,789 acres of land located in
Salinas, Puerto Rico
. This training facility was named posthumously after
Medal of Honor
recipient and Salinas, Puerto Rico native
Specialist
Four
Héctor Santiago-Colón
HISTORY:
In 1940, the
Federal government of the United States
leased this military camp, then known as Camp Salinas, from the Government of Puerto Rico. In 1967, the U.S. Government licensed the camp to the Puerto Rico National Guard. Since that time the camp has grown from a tent city with very few permanent facilities to an installation of more than 300 buildings of approximately 715,680 square feet.
In 1941 the
65th Infantry Regiment
3rd Battalion was the first combat unit to train at this Southern Puerto Rico military camp before being sent to
Panama
to protect the
Panama Canal
during
World War II
.
In 1966 Col.
Alberto A. Nido
requested the construction of a range, the
National Guard Bureau
approved the construction at the cost of ,000. Captain Gabriel I. Peñagarícano was assigned project officer and the U.S. Army Antilles Command caretakers of the camp, provided earth-moving equipment and personnel. In 1974, Campamento Santiago's air strip was renamed after administrative official Manuel Collazo.
The camp was named after Specialist Héctor Santiago Colón from Salinas, Puerto Rico, a posthumous Medal of Honor recipient. The soldier died at the
Quang Tri Province
,
South Vietnam
on June 28, 1968, while serving for Company B of the 5th Battalion of the 7th Regiment of Cavalry and became a HERO for shielding his comrades from a grenade with his own body. The installation used for training of the Puerto Rico National Guard was formally named "Campamento Santiago" pursuant to an order issued by the General Quarters of the United States Army on July 1, 1975. This marked the second instance that a military installation in Puerto Rico was re-baptized after a local soldier after Campamento García in Vieques was named after Fernando García Division General
Carlos Chardón
was actively involved in the process to propose the recognition. The Cal. 45 shooting range at Campanento Santiago was baptized after Col. Eduardo Andino, a distinguished pistol and rifle shooter that won a U.S. Army National Pistol Championship in 1922.
From 1990 to 1991, military units in Puerto Rico such as the
92nd Maneuver Enhancement Brigade
reported to Camp Santiago for initial training in preparation before deployment to
Operation Desert Storm
in Kuwait. Camp Santiago also had a role in training National Guard and Reserve soldiers in Puerto Rico for
Operation Enduring Freedom
during the
War in Afghanistan
and the
Global War on Terror
. In 2006 more soldiers went back to Camp Santiago to prepare for the
Iraq War
during
Operation Desert Shield
.
The
U.S. Navy
had a radio station receiver site at Camp Santiago.
Camp Santiago also served as a small village for athletes for the
1993 Central American and Caribbean Games
in Ponce and the
2010 Central American and Caribbean Games
in Mayagüez.
