R&D Centennial Cards

In 2016, Forest Service Research and Development began its second century of service to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service; the natural resource science community; and to the American public. In anticipation of the next 100 years, these cards provide a snapshot of the first century of Forest Service Research and Development. Each card describes Research and Development milestones accomplished during the tenure of 1 to 14 Research and Development Deputy Chiefs, the organization's top leader, serving between 1915 and 2015.
