This article states that Fort Reno was "originally constructed in 1863 by the 119th Pennsylvania Regiment". This is a little confusing as clearly Fort Reno (as Fort Pennsylvania) was originally constructed in 1861 by the Pennsylvanian Regiments of McCall's Pennsylvania Reserves (I think). During it's history it was continually improved and extended. I assume that what is meant by this statement is that it became Fort Reno in 1863.John Tierney 02:27, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
