"On the north shore of the James River, 20 miles west of the Chesapeake Bay, the marshy plains of Mulberry Island can bee seen. Mulberry Island is a picturesque fixture of Virginias Tidewater region whose natural beauty is enriched by thousands of years of human history. With 10,000 years of human history, over 230 recorded archaeological sites, two museums, and what may be the oldest building under the Department of Defenses care, Mulberry Island is a showpiece of Chesapeake heritage and military stewardship. Today, as part of Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Fort Eustis continues to celebrate Mulberry Islands long and rich history, spanning the millennia from its earliest prehistoric occupants to the arrival of the modern military.
