There were 2 Main Units located on O'Brien Barracks:
1st Squadron, 1st Regiment Cavalry (1/1 Cav)
2nd Battalion, 52nd Air Defense Artillery Brigade (2/59 ADA)

The map has letter designations to coordinate pictures. These are not actual building numbers. I only remember 2 building numbers, 1002 and 1003. The map has some building blocked out. These builidngs were not there in 1977-1980.
