SUMMARY:Military History Talk
DESCRIPTION:The Development of the Vancouver Barracks and City of Vancouver’s Water System\nHow does the City of Vancouver get its drinking water? It is more than the simple act of turning on a tap. Vancouver’s water system began with rain barrels and wooden pipes\, then artesian wells; as private companies competed to provide water to both the U.S. Army and the City of Vancouver. The competition and increasing complexity of the water demands eventually led to the City of Vancouver purchasing the private water company\, and creating a public utility\, which exists today. \nSpeaker: LTC James Pestillo (U.S. Air Force\, Retired)

SUMMARY:Military History Talk
DESCRIPTION:The Portland Metro Area Response Plan in World War II\nWhen the United States entered World War II\, it was the first time since the War of 1812 that the United States feared a full-scale enemy invasion. Across the country\, as military bases beefed up their security and war plans\, so did civilian governments. In Portland\, Oregon\, the city developed and implemented a comprehensive plan to combat enemy attacks\, as well as implementing the changes necessary at home to support the war effort abroad. These plans included the City of Vancouver. \nSpeakers: Mr. Paul Fanning
