Houses On Colorful Rainbow Avenue–Fort Benning, Georgia

This E. C. Kropp Co. vintage postcard is part of my grandparents' postcard collection. I don't know when they purchased it, but the postcard must be dated before 1956, because that is the year the E. C. Kropp Co. was sold to the L. L. Cook Co. in 1956.

Description on Back of Postcard -
All married officers and soldiers of Fort Benning rent their homes through a billeting office that was established with the cooperation of the Chamber of Commere (sic) and the Columbus real estate board. Columbus receives a large share of the ever increasing population of the Fort.
Thanks for stopping by!

  1. What a timely post for ME - my daughter and her fiance (Air Force) have just received orders to Fort Benning. He's to report in January.

    1. Wow Wendy! That's so cool! Please thank your daughter and future son-in-law for their sacrifice and service. I'm including your daughter in my thanks because family members of service men and women sacrifice too while their loved ones serve.

      Thank you so much for stopping by!
