    The First Army builds an office building and names it Marshall Hall

    Building 108 was built in 1945 to hold offices for the First Army and was named Marshall Hall for General George C. Marshall. Its cornerstone reads "Erected A.D. 1945". The brick L-shaped hall is in a neo-Georgian style, a choice the landmark report calls typical of military bases of the period and a continuation of the island's building trend since the 1920s.
