U.S.D.B. (U.S. Disciplinary Barracks) History

Abstract

This history of the U.S. Disciplinary Barracks (USDB) was originally compiled and published serially in the authorized prisoner publication, "STRAY SHOTS." The expressed interest by staff officials and visitors in obtaining reference copies prompted the preparation of this pamphlet, as the last known history of the institution was published in 1910. Though the USDB system was eventually expanded to other barracks, this document focuses on the first military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, which was founded in 1874.
