Thank you again, yes I am very interested. I am also doing research on the 76th Field Artillery Regiment (horse-drawn) from 1922 to 1942 and it never ever dawned on me the type of forge they would have. Do you have any idea the year of this forge? Thank you for your permission to use the images. You will find on all my research work the images are not protected against downloading. I too enjoy sharing information.
Thanks again

Yes, most of the original Fort Ord blacksmith shops and stables (12 still standing out of 21) are still there. And so is the Station Veterinary Hospital that was built to handle the horses and mules of the 76th Field Artillery and 107th Cavalry up to 1942 when they went mechanized. This is the beauty of it, we can still see and visit this very rare example of how horse units were set-up.
I thank you for your help!

Fort Ord U.S. Army Blacksmith Shops
I am working on research on the Fort Ord Station Veterinary Hospital (horse), blacksmith shops and stables at old Fort Ord that serviced the horses of the 76th Field Artillery Regiment (horse-drawn) in 1940-41. Can anyone tell me anything about an early period WW2 blacksmith shop? I would like to learn about the type of forge and how the shop would have been set-up.
I have attached a picture of one of the blacksmith shops.
