Camp Greble was named in honor of Lieutenant John Trout Greble killed at the Battle of Big Bethel, Virginia (June 10, 1861) and the first Union Army officer to die in the Civil War. In 1861, Frank Maynicke, a native-born Prussian, enlisted as a private in the New York State Volunteers (N.Y.S.V.). He was eventually transferred to Company F of the 99th N.Y.S.V., serving in the Union Coast Guard. In January 1864, he was captured near Smithfield, Va., and was a prisoner of war in Richmond, Va., and Andersonville, Ga.
