Holloman Air Fo rce Base. New Mexico 3 elcome to the land of deep blue skies and awe-inspiring contrast. Holloman is located in New Mexico's Tula­ W rosa Basin between the Sacramento and San Andreas mountain ranges. The area surrounding the base is one reason New Mexico was named "The Land of Enchantment." There is an abundance of year­ round outdoor activities for families and singles alike. Members and families can picnic and stroll in the coolness of lush green alpine forests or explore for cacti specimens across great expanses of Painted Desert. Some of the most popular tourist attractions in the Southwest are nearby. Hiking among great mountains with magnificent panoramas is close enough for a day-trip and various ski slopes, for the amateur as well as the most advanced skier, are also available nearby. Many retirees choose to live in this area because of the healthy atmosphere and year-round low humidity of about 35 percent.

Alamogordo, N.M. Initial plans called for the base to serve as the center for the British Overseas Training Program; the British hoped to train their aircrews over the open New Mexico skies. However, everything changed when the Japanese launched a sur­ prise attack against the Hawaiian Islands on Dec. 7, 1941. The British abandoned their overseas training program and U.S. military leadership viewed the location as a prime opportunity to train its own growing military. Construction began at the airfield when Christopher Gallegos cut the first strand of barbed wire at a point about one-half mile west of the current location of Holloman's main gate, Feb. 6, 1942. From 1942-1945, Alamogordo Army Air Field served as the training grounds for over 20 different groups, primarily flying B-17s, B-24s and B-29s. Typically, these groups served at the airfield for six months, training their personnel before heading to combat in the Pacific or European Theater. The 450th Bombardment Group was one of the many to cut its teeth at Alamogordo. After training, the group went on to serve in nearly every major combat operation in Italy, France, Germany,
