Plotting Room
Battery Tactical #1,
Fort Brumback, HD Dutch Harbor
Home  |  Dutch Harbor

The plotting room for Battery Tactical #1 is located in a "multiplate magazine" type structure about 2000 feet east of the gun positions. This type of construction used small plates of corrugated metal bolted together to form a Quonset hut like structure, with plate metal walls enclosing either end.

In addition to the actual plotting room, the facility also included a small switchboard room and an auxiliary power shelter. Interesting features at the plotting room include the original oil heater and some telephone equipment.
