Photo taken from between Fiddler's Green Enlisted Men's Club building 602 and St. Paul's Chapel building 632.
The Administration Building 601 is seen to the right and the end of a barracks in the 1st. Regiment on the far left in the distance.

Mess Hall Building 502, served the Service School Command.
Several barracks for the Service School personnel are seen on the left.
Took many a meal in this mess hall.
While many considered Navy chow less than satisfactory, being of humble background I found the chow abundant and excellent (actually gained 20 lbs in 10 weeks in San Diego boot camp).

Mess Hass 502 apparently also served the NAPS School students as this 1963 Parent's Day schedule of events indicates. Rather surprising is parents had to purchase their own meals.

On Bainbridge Avenue looking into the entrance road to Second Regiment Camp Perry Recruit Training Area.
In 1967 when this photo was taken 2nd regiment was not being utilized since the last male recruit company to train at Bainbridge graduated 10 years before in December 1957.

Yeoman's School in the fall of 1967 looking down Bainbridge Avenue.

Yeoman's School circa 1956 looking down Bainbridge Avenue.

Another view from a postcard date unknown. Probably 1963-4 judging by the growth of the trees in comparison to the 1967 photo.
▼
Yeoman's School as built April 1943, viewed from the opposite direction. Yeoman School was the last service school completed. (Notice the construction stakes out on Bainbridge Avenue)
The Electrical School is the building behind the Yeoman School.
▼
Yeoman's School under construction in the fall/winter of 1942, while the adjacent Radioman's School to the right appears to be completed.
Snow on the roofs of many buildings and some buildings with snow melted off possibly indicate most buildings were unoccupied and not being heated.
