The City of Sierra Vista’s 50th Anniversary Task Force and the Sierra Vista Herald are pleased to present this collection of historic photographs from Sierra Vista, Fort Huachuca and the surrounding area. Many of these images have never before been published. They were selected to provide a snapshot of the various segments of life in the city’s formative, early days. They illuminate the values, work ethic, traditions and beliefs that were held by those who helped make Sierra Vista the community it is today. By turning the pages of this book, we hope you find enjoyment in seeing the pictures of the people, places and things that formed the foundation of Sierra Vista, celebrating its 50th year in May 2006.
