One component of Fort MacArthur is Battery Osgood-Farley which is considered one of the best preserved examples of U.S. Coastal Defense emplacements remaining. Another such emplacement at the fort is Battery John Bartow and Saxton.
The Fort MacArthur Military Museum is at the site of Battery Osgood-Farley.
The museum opened in 1985.

The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.
