There were infantry soldiers at Sacket’s Harbor in 1809 but Fort Drum did not become a training site until 1908. The 10th Mountain Division name came into usage in 1985. According to their website, "Since 1941, the Mountain Division has regularly fought at altitudes above 10,000 feet in Afghanistan, and temperatures ranging from sub-zero in Afghanistan to 130 degrees in the Middle Eastern deserts of Iraq and Kuwait."

After the museum, I went out looking for the Tibbit's Point Lighthouse. First, I found The Town of Cape Vincent. The sign says: “This lighthouse was located on the Cape Vincent Breakwater from 1900 to 1951 when it was moved to the present location and now serves as a proud landmark for this approach to the village.”
