Camp Sevier (1) (1917-1919) - A U.S. Army World War I National Guard Mobilization and Training Camp first established in 1917 near Taylors, Greenville County, South Carolina. Named Camp Sevier in G.O. 95, 18 Jul 1917, after the Governor of the States of Franklin and Tennessee, John Sevier, who had served as Brigadier General in the North Carolina Militia during the Revolutionary War. Abandoned in 1919. One of sixteen U.S. Army National Guard Mobilization and Training Camps established in 1917 to train and integrate National Guard units for service in a U.S. Army division. Camp Sevier was established 18 July 1917 under the supervision of construction quartermaster Major A. G. Doyle on a site of about 1,900 acres. The camp was to have a capacity of about 46,000 officers and enlisted men that would become the 30th U.S. Infantry Division. The camp was completed in November 1917 at an eventual cost of $ 6,500,000. The first commander of the camp was Major General John F. Morrison (Cullum 2904) who formed the 30th U.S. Infantry Division and initiated training. The 30th arrived in August 1917 and departed for France in May 1918. The 30th distinguished itself in combat and sustained heavy losses, including 1,652 killed, 9,429 wounded and 77 captured. The 30th returned to the U.S. and was demobilized on 7 May 1919 at Camp Jackson (1), South Carolina. note, see my original ten page thread bound printed paper announcement and roster of the 1918 thanksgiving dinner held at camp sevier, the announcement bulletin with camp roster is four (4) pages with 100 year old thread binding detailing the menu and camp roster, go to my other items and search keywords CAMP SEVIER BID AND BUY HERE IN IN ABSOLUTE CONFIDENCE SINCE I HAVE THOUSANDS OF POSITIVE FEEDBACK AND TEN+ YEARS EBAY EXPERIENCE.
