Sampson Naval School in World War II The Sampson Naval School, located near Seneca Lake in New York State, was a major U.S. Navy training center during World War II. Built in 1942, it trained over 400,000 sailors before they were sent to serve overseas. Recruits received intensive instruction in discipline, navigation, radio, weapons, and physical training. The base also served as a hospital for wounded sailors. After the war, it was used by the Air Force and later became Sampson State Park. Tod
