On January 7, 1918, one local newspaper at Vancouver Barracks reporting on the progress of the mill stated, “(the Spruce Mill is) growing so rapidly and in such large proportion, that the landscape is changed almost every twenty-four hours.”31 At the time of this statement, four of a total of six units of the Spruce Mill were already completed, the fifth unit was in construction, and the sixth unit was being excavated.

лесопилка

The Pacific Northwest was home to one of the world's best supplies of spruce, and so the U.S. Military created the Spruce Production Division, headquartered at Vancouver Barracks, to ensure that the allies would have enough spruce to produce aircraft. At its peak, the Spruce Mill, once located on the plain where Fort Vancouver and Pearson Air Museum are located today, operated 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and produced 1 million board feet of lumber daily. The exhibit takes visitors from the entry of the United States into the war in 1917, through the creation of the Spruce Production Division and the home-front efforts undertaken in Vancouver, up to the end of the war and the birth of the Army Air Service.
