Camp Naco

Becky Orozco

Camp Naco is a cornerstone of Buffalo Soldier history in Arizona and represents the proud tradition of Black military regiments after the Civil War. In 2022, Camp Naco was named one of America’s 11 Most Endangered Historic Places by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. This was followed by two significant awards granted to the City of Bisbee and the Naco Heritage Alliance. This marks the apex of a 22-year journey by Becky Orozco, faculty emeritus for Cochise College.
