What WAS here is banked, and stands: the war's footprint on this ground was housing and households. Kingsbury's workers filled the town's spare rooms and houses, and the census tells the size of it — 1,178 in 1940, 2,102 in 1950, the doubling the banked spine attributes to the plant years — while the Mothers of World War II kept their Walkerton Unit 140 and set its stone in 1947, the footprint in its most durable local form.
What was NOT here can now be printed one item longer. No camp stood on this ground and no airfield — the banked transportation test finds three private turf strips and no public airport, ever. No branch camp at Walkerton, and none at Kingsbury either, appears in the state POW record reached — the ordnance plant that might have drawn one drew its labor free. The footprint test therefore closes in both directions at the strength reached: people and housing, yes, in size; installations of any kind — camp, airfield, prison camp — none.
