Camp Rucker Part 02: Officer's Quarters, Commissary, bakery, medical supply & water tower
Fort Rucker, originally called Camp Supply, was established in March 1878 to extend the Army's reach in the area.
In July of that Lt. John Rucker was drowned trying to save a fellow soldier, Lt. Austin Henely. The next spring, Camp Supply was renamed
Camp Rucker and eventually Fort Rucker.
The Fort was one of the more important military stations in the campaigns against the Apache tribes led by Geronimo and Cochise.
It even had a run in with one of the old west's most notorious groups: Curly Bill Brocious and the cowboys, of Tombstone fame.
Today the Fort is on Forest Service land with access open to the public.
If you enjoy camping, Rucker Canyon and Rucker Lake are nice camping locations.
