Depots
As American military materiel
moved to the battlefront, it was
stored in
million square feet of
covered storage space erected by
the engineers. Requiring quick
results, the engineers constructed
most depot buildings with
corrugated-iron roofs and walls
attached to simple wooden frames.
Noteworthy was the Romorantin
Air Service Depot, which boasted
1.3 million square feet of shops
and 765,000 square feet of
storehouses and hangars.
