CDSG Representative Site Visit Reports
The Coast Defense Study Group (CDSG) promotes the study, preservation, and accurate interpretation of coast defenses and fortifications, primarily those of the United States of America. Although CDSG does not own or manage coast defense sites, it accomplishes its goals by outreach to site owners and managers to assist with preservation and interpretation.
Assistance that CDSG can provide includes:
- Providing accurate information about the site.
- Assisting with the preparation of interpretive displays.
- Advising on preservation of fortifications, related structures, and artifacts.
- Contributing to the funding of preservation and interpretation projects.
If you want to volunteer as a CDSG representative for a site or sites, please contact us! Details on gathering information for the CDSG from sites and providing information from the CDSG for sites is in the linked pages above. Information on American seacoast defense history is available throughout the CDSG website. If you have any questions about the site representative program, please contact: Outreach@cdsg.org
