漢弗萊營
Camp Humphreys was one of the teams fielded by military bases that played against college opponents in 1918. Originally the Gobblers were scheduled to face another military team, the Aero Squadron of Richmond, but there was a change during the week before the game. Camp Humphreys was a semi-temporary cantonment built on the Belvoir peninsula in Fairfax County, VA in 1918. When the men on the Camp Humphreys team came to Blacksburg, they were coming from a place where over 50 men per day had been dying of the Spanish flu and related pneumonia. The flu was said to have been "conquered" by the week of the game; the number of deaths per day had fallen to 10.
