  • Isaac Littell was a United States officer, a Brigadier General in the United States Army, who was awarded the Army Distinguished Service Medal for meritorious and distinguished service during World War I. Specifically, Littell was honored for building the camps and cantonments of the Army raised in the summer of 1917 as chief of the Cantonment Division of the Quartermaster General's Office. Then a colonel, Littell was the first head of the Cantonment Division (later renamed the Construction Division) after its creation in May, 1917. The division was charged with building for the draft army and United States National Guard camps, embarkation camps, terminals, arsenals, chemical plants, plants for the manufacture of explosives and their ingredients, hospitals and warehouses. Its first chore was to create, within 70 days, 16 Army camps with essential utilities and transportation routes, capable of sustaining 45,000 people each, while within the same time frame constructing the same number of smaller camps for the National Guard.
