The Dempsey Facility was once a training ground for recruit airmen during the Vietnam War based out of Fort Wolters nearby, but is now owned by the county and is used for meeting some of the county's needs. Most recently it was used as a Field Headquarters for local fire departments to coordinate their efforts in fighting the Dempsey Fire in June of 2022. It's other uses have been things such as holding thousands of Volkswagens after a manufacturer's recall, processing asphalt for county infrastructure projects, etc. It is guarded and closed to the public.
