Fort Hancock was less affected than most forts, probably due to its being a primary defense for New York City. One gun of Battery Halleck was removed for potential service as railway artillery; several other weapons including the other guns of Battery Halleck and the three guns of Battery Arrowsmith were listed for removal but remained at the fort. Battery Engle's single gun was removed for service as a field gun on a wheeled carriage and not returned to the fort, as were almost all of the M1897 guns forcewide.

After the American entry into World War I a number of changes took place at most stateside coast defense forts. With the threat from German surface ships unlikely, they became more important as mobilization and training centers. Their garrisons were reduced to provide trained heavy artillery crews for the Western Front, and many of their weapons were removed with a view to getting them into the fight eventually. The Coast Artillery operated almost all US heavy and railway artillery in that war, primarily weapons purchased from the French and British. Fort Totten's 5-inch, 8-inch, 10-inch, and 12-inch batteries were dismounted in 1917-1918 as potential railway or, in the case of the 5-inchers, field artillery.

Formby, Ferry became interested in the property owned by Jonathan Jenkins, at Evanston, south of Gawler, and its training track, which Ferry fancied converting to a privately owned racecourse, perhaps with a view to getting extra value from his "tote". Jenkins was prepared to sell the property, and Ferry organised a syndicate which included Blackler, and Gawler businessmen James Martin, J. J. Mortimer and H. E. Bright, jr., to effect the purchase and erect a grandstand, fences and the other necessary improvements. For the first race meeting, the Railways department made arrangements for the train from Adelaide to stop near the course for the benefit of performers and spectators, but would not come to a similar arrangement for subsequent meetings.

This action by Dalmazzo at Knin formed part of a wider pattern of the Italians attempting to expand their influence into the NDH at the expense of the Zagreb government. This was done by aligning their occupation policies with the demands of the Serb nationalists, with a view to getting the refugees to return to their towns and villages and thereby avoid having to fight the rebel groups themselves. On 2 August, Tenente (Lieutenant) Emilio Creolli reported to Orazi that the Serb nationalists had met at Benkovac as arranged by Orazi, and agreed to return to their home towns and work together with the Italians to unite the Gračac and Knin districts of the NDH with the Italian Governorate of Dalmatia, those parts of Dalmatia already annexed by the Italians, because such a common policy would thwart the communist-led insurgency. Đujić, Rađenović and the others were also promised financial and material assistance, with the details to be determined between the Governor of Dalmatia Giuseppe Bastianini and Orazi.

Annand joined Dundee in March 1997 for a fee of £75, 000. Dundee manager John McCormack, who had taken over the Dens Park hotseat at Christmas, was keen to add some firepower to his side after losing Lee Power and Paul Tosh in January and brought in Annand just before the 31 March signing deadline in preparation for the following season. With promotion already gone, 'Cowboy' was building for next year and his new 5 ft 11in striker immediately started to pay dividends, with two goals in the last three games of the season. With the support of new owners Peter and Jimmy Marr, McCormack brought in a number of new players in the summer with a view to getting promotion and amongst them was another striker James Grady from Clydebank, who would strike up a potent partnership with Annand. Between them Annand and Grady would score thirty-two goal to shoot Dundee into the inaugural SPL and on 15 April 1998, at Starks Park Kirkcaldy, Eddie scored the goal that gave Dundee the First Division title with the equaliser in a 1-1 draw with Raith.
