Over the last century, more than 6 million soldiers have passed through the Burlington County military installation first known as Camp Dix.  As well as soldiers, Camp Dix, eventually called Fort Dix, housed WWII prisoners, draft dodgers and protesters.  It was nearly bombed by a radical group in the ‘70s and again after 9/11.  Its Federal prison housed a few notorious criminals.  Join us for the entire story of Fort Dix and learn about Burlington’s famous camp.
