Enlistedman's Barracks (Reconstruction)
The enlistedman's barracks housed approximately 85 men comprising the company's compliment of sergeants, corporals and private soldiers. The closet in each room was provided for weapons and baggage that each soldier was issued. The smaller of the two rooms was the noncommissioned officers room. It housed the compliment of sergeants and corporals while the larger portion of the building housed the private soldiers. Each bunk or crib would provide sleeping room for two men of each level. Furniture, such as tables and chairs, were either constructed or provided for their comfort. |
