Requisitioned in 1942, the site became the Australian headquarters of the Allied Translator and Interpreter Service (ATIS). Japanese and German POWs were brought here for interrogation prior to imprisonment in the southern states. The military purchased the site in 1945. In 1951 it became the Northern Command Provost Company’s barracks. It changed its name from Indooroopilly Barracks to Witton Barracks during the 1980s.
