History, justice on side of C&A in Fort Reno debate
“Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.” - Henry Ford
The rightful ownership of Fort Reno has been debated for more than 100 years. But judging from the points laid out in 1999 by the United States Department of the Interior Office of the Solicitor, as well as in 2009 when a federal Court of Appeals did not reach an alternative conclusion, it appears as though the federal government has fought to keep the land from the C&A for one reason, oil.
