Caribbean — Fort filing

Forts with a file in U.S. Virgin Islands

6 U.S. Virgin Islands dossiers cover ground that already gave its account — muster rolls, casualty lists, after-action reports — and then kept filing. Figures on the field, sounds in the works, presences attributed to documented deaths. The archive keeps the two records in separate columns and notes where witnesses claim they meet.
