Fremington Army Camp was a military camp in the village of Fremington, Devon, England, which was used as a base to train the United States Army Air Corps. It was originally located there to be within easy marching distance from the railway station at the Quay. ==History== The site was used by the US Army's 313th Station Hospital for post-D-Day rehabilitation, with room for 2,000 patients. It started receiving casualties on 20 July 1944. From 1946 it was home to the School of Combined Operations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Camp history )〕 It complemented the Royal Marines and Royal Air Force presence at Royal Marines Base Chivenor, situated a mile (2 km) northwards on the opposite bank of the River Taw, and 11 (Amphibious Trials and Training) Squadron, 1 Assault Group Royal Marines at Arromanches Camp, Instow, to the west. In 2009 the camp was closed due to its severely outdated nature, and the opportunity to re-develop the land.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nine jobs will go as Fremington army camp closes )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fremington Army Camp」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
