History of Camp Kohler and the Western Signal Corps School in Northern California. What do a migrant worker camp, a Japanese American assembly center, an Army Signal Corps training center, a prisoner of war branch camp, an Army Air Corps overseas replacement depot, an Army branch port of embarkation, and Walerga engineer depot have in common? They were all located on the same property as Camp Kohler, California. The Army land holdings in Sacramento County would grow from a 160-acre tract in1942 to over some 3,800 acres at its high point in 1944. Most of the land was leased throughout its history and returned to its owners starting in 1946 when no longer needed by the Army.
