Useful information regarding dates

I notice there are some question marks on the page regarding dates. This page might help with that: http://www.eustis.army.mil/Fort_story/History.asp —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.210.219.131 (talk) 20:27, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Update

I just got back from a visit there and was told that Ft Story will be passed to the Navy under BRAC in 2010. Does anyone have any verification? 138.162.128.54 (talk) 15:27, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

NSWG-2/3

There is some confusion regarding Little Creek and the relationship with the SEAL teams. Group 2 is out of LCNAB, but there is a wikipedia article indicating a Group 3 detachment at LCNAB. Will correct as necessary. TreacherousWays (talk) 19:33, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
