Originally conceived as an artillery training center for World War I, Fort Bragg was completed after the armistice in 1918. The town was named for North Carolina native Braxton Bragg and Pope Air Field is named for Lt. Harley Pope, who died in a plane crash. The military post is a significant part of the local community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded as a fort for artillery, Fort Bragg has since evolved into a world-class fighting force. In honor of its 100th anniversary, the town hosted events that celebrated the contributions of servicemembers, their families, and its civilian workforce. Paratroopers past and present converged on Fort Bragg for a week-long celebration. Pfc. Alleea Oliver took the photo below of her fellow paratroopers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When visiting Fort Bragg, North Carolina, you can find numerous shopping areas.
