Andersen AFB- The most important US Air Base west of Hawaii

Congrats to “I Killed” raffle book winners: ATC Cobb and Kaylee Wood!

What a great time I’ve had in Guam this week!  Chief Lactaoen, you have been the best!   My final stop here in Guam is Andersen AFB.   The most important U.S. air base west of Hawaii, Andersen is the only one in the Western Pacific that can permanently base U.S. heavy strategic bombers (one of the four Air Force Bomber Forward Operating Locations). It is one of two critical US bases in the Asia Pacific Region, along with Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean.   The host unit at Andersen AFB is the 36th Wing (36 WG), assigned to the Pacific Air Forces Eleventh Air Force. A non-flying wing, the 36 WG’s mission is to provide support to deployed air and space forces of USAF and foreign air forces to Andersen, and to support tenant units assigned to the base. I will be at the AAFB Theater on Thursday June 7 at 0800 and 1500.  Come say hi and have some laughs!
