    Camp Sherman
    is an
    Ohio Army National Guard
    training site near
    Chillicothe
    ,
    Ohio
    . It was established in 1917 after the
    U.S.
    entered
    World War I
    and today serves as a training site for National Guard Soldiers.
    Between June and September 1917, the Army constructed 2,000 buildings at the Camp Sherman site, which included "Mound City," an enclosure and collection of earthworks left by the native Hopewell culture. In the process, some ancient earthworks were damaged or destroyed.
