Had the opportunity to tour FORT MILES at Cape Henlopen State Park earlier today with members of the Fort Miles Historical Association. Fort Miles, home of the 261st Coast Artillery and built in 1941, is a massive coastal fortification that was designed to defend assets along the Delaware River and Bay during World War II. It was one of the largest and most heavily armed coastal fortifications ever built on the east coast of the United States and offers a fascinating look at our history.
