AIR FORCE TRAINEES CAMP AT MIAMI HOTELS
April 1, 1942 The government has notified Miami hotel owners that the Air Force
will be taking over many of the city's 300 resort hotels to house up to
30,000 trainees.
The men will be run through a training center--dubbed by the cadets
"Camp Miami Beach"---that will graduate non-flying officer trainees at the rate of 1,000 a day.
This article was in Detroit News April 1,1942
I have a diary and I stayed in Netherland Hotel and it was across the street foom
the Atlatic Ocean. Marching was done on paved roads and other training done on golf courses
