The Fort MacArthur Museum Association: Battery 241

Battery 241 Twin six-inch armored turret guns Today Battery 241 sits empty as part of the park surrounding the Korean Friendship Bell. while it is officially part of the park, the area surrounding the battery is not maintained and it is becoming a target for graffiti and vandalism. There is no irrigation system but there is constant foot traffic. As a result, the battery is suffering some erosion problems, particularly over the entrances to the magazines.
