- Recently CTac is grateful for a generous donation from the Toccoa VFW Post 4346. Three display cases were picked up and delivered to Camp by Fritz and Joyce Najarian from PA. They have purchased and donated most of the beds located in both the 506 and 517th barracks. Reenactors helped unload and set up in the HQ building.
