The big ones in central are lakes. The ones near the cape line up with some state parks.

That would probably be Myles Standish State Forest and it looks like the one on Cape could be Joint Base Cape Cod

You nailed it.

That is correct the black area on cape is the base. That particular section is the largest area of woods on cape. Nothing out the except woods and a few training sites. 19000 acres of woods total out there if I remember correctly

Grew up just down the street from the Falmouth gate. People underestimate the size of JBCC. It’s large enough that sections touch 4 different towns.

The one immediately on the cape is the USAF/USCG/USSF base.

I don't know about that. The one between Quabbin and Worcester seems a lot bigger than Long Pond, and Oakaham and Rutland State Forests.

Moore state park or Moose Hill? There is a lot of green space near Barre.
