My grandfather's family got ran off their farm by camp breckinridge and they moved here, just out side of it beside my grandmother's family farm. Most all the camp is farm ground now. They still find stuff, but up into the 70's people would plow up live rounds. There were some people killed when they would dig up a live round that did not go off back in the day. Granddad always said thats what they get for buy'n stolen ground.
My grand mother's aunt lived less than a half mile from the camp. They dropped a shell on her barn roof one night. Granddad found it the next morning with hogs lay'n around it. He did not know it was live, called raise'n cain about the barn roof. They came out and packed the shell out in the field and blew it up. He said it left a 5' hole in the ground, and the "camo pigs" would not fill it in for him. There is not much left of the barn now, but you can still see where they patched the roof on the west side.
