US Army Transportation Corps booklet Last Stop, U.S.A., 1946, for dependent families staying at Fort Hamilton in Brooklyn while waiting for the Army transportation ship to debark from the Brooklyn Army Terminal, in this case for Bremerhaven, Germany. For Pam and her mom Ruth, the wait would be almost two weeks. I'm not sure how they amused themselves but they were just a short walk from a spectacular view of New York Harbor and a three-mile bus ride from Coney Island.
