Moore St., Ste 2300 1611 Arnold Drive Arlington, VA 2209-2802 Alexandria, LA 71303-5636 Dear Messrs. Lowas and Miller: The Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) and United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 6 together have determined that a portion of the former England Air Force Base, Alexandria, is Ready for Reuse. We congratulate you on this noteworthy accomplishment! Each agency would like to express their deepest appreciation to the Air Force Real Property Agency (AFRPA), and the England Economic and Industrial Development District (EEIDD), for their cooperation. A Ready for Reuse Determination is an acknowledgment by both agencies that environmental conditions on the property are protective of human health and the environment based on its current and anticipated future use. The subject of this Ready for Reuse Determination is the expanded golf course that encompasses a portion of the former England Air Force base. The Oakwing Golf Club is a public eighteen-hole course located along the scenic banks of Bayou Rapides and Bayou Le Tig. The expanded golf course is comprised of approximately 220 acres. Additionally, the course is a member of the prestigious “Audubon Golf Trail” and has recently completed construction of a new state-of-the-art clubhouse. One of the common goals of EEIDD, AFRPA, LDEQ, and EPA Region 6, is to make use of assets of the former base to offset the local economic impact of closure of the base.

    INTIMIDATING THE WORLD: THE UNITED STATES ATOMIC ARMY, 1956-1960 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Paul C. Jussel, B.A., M.M.A.S., M.S.S. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee Approved by Professor Allan R. Millett, Advisor Professor John R. Guilmartin __________________ Professor William R. Childs Advisor Department of History ABSTRACT The atomic bomb created a new military dynamic for the world in 1945. The bomb, if used properly, could replace the artillery fires and air-delivered bombs used to defeat the concentrated force of an enemy. The weapon provided the U.S. with an unparalleled advantage over the rest of the world, until the Soviet Union developed its own bomb by 1949 and symmetry in warfare returned. Soon, theories of warfare changed to reflect the belief that the best way to avoid the effects of the bomb was through dispersion of forces. Eventually, the American Army reorganized its divisions from the traditional three-unit organization to a new five-unit organization, dubbed pentomic by its Chief of Staff, General Maxwell D. Taylor. While atomic weapons certainly had an effect on Taylor’s reasoning to adopt the pentomic organization, the idea was not new in 1956; the Army hierarchy had been wrestling with restructuring since the end of World War II. Though the Korean War derailed the Army’s plans for the early fifties, it returned to the forefront under the Eisenhower Administration. The driving force behind reorganization in 1952 was not ii only the reoriented and reduced defense budget, but also the Army’s inroads to the atomic club, formerly the domain of only the Air Force and the Navy.

WEBB Air Controller, Air Force, Career and Vietnam War. 1999 OH 222 OH 222 Webb, John (Jack) A., (1936- ). Oral History Interview, 1999. User Copy: 2 sound cassettes (ca. 78 min.), analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Master Copy: 1 sound cassette (ca. 78 min.), analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Transcript: 0.1 linear ft. (1 folder). Abstract: John "Jack" A. Webb, a Durand, Wisconsin native, discusses his career in the Air Force, including service in Asia during the Vietnam War and the Cold War. Webb mentions his family’s military history, enlisting in 1954, and his military training, including work with radar and with electronic countermeasure systems for B-47s. He touches on volunteering for Combat Control, going through jump school, and joining a team at Hurlburt Field (Florida) in 1963. Webb outlines his career and states he served in Laos and Nakhon Phanom (Thailand) between 1964 and 1966, as well as in Korea and in Japan after the USS Pueblo Incident. He discusses taking different types of Special Forces training, including jungle survival in Panama and infiltrating a CIA base. He speaks of “Operation Water Pump/Project 404”: living at Vang Pao’s secret headquarters at Long Tieng (Laos), duties as an air controller working in conjunction with the Laos military, and officially being a member of the U.S. Embassy rather than an Air Force employee. Webb expresses regret that when he went to Laos, little was known about Hmong culture and everyone called the Hmong a derogatory term without knowing better.

    DONALD L POSS 23rd Air Base Group Da Nang Air Base, Republic of Vietnam [NOTE: the 23rd ABG replaced the 6222 Air Base Squadron on 8 July 1963 at Da Nang, and itself would be replaced by the 6252nd Tactical Fighter Wing in July 1965, and the 6252nd would be replaced by the 35th Tactical Fighter Wing in January 1966.] Extract, 23rd Air Base Group 1 July through 31 December 1963 Historical Data Record (AFHRA Call Number K-GP-AB-23-HI, Jul-Dec 1963, IRIS Number 437540): Page 2, Narrative: The 23rd Consolidated Aircraft Maintenance Squadron [was established by the same order that activated the 23rd CSG], with a resultant increase in the manpower authorization for the base. Heretofore all maintenance on assigned C-123B aircraft had been performed by TDY personnel from the 464th Troop Carrier Squadron, Pope AFB, North Carolina. It was not until October 1963 that the 23rd CAMRON really came into being. A very troublesome transition period developed between the departure of the TDY maintenance personnel and the influx of permanently assigned maintenance personnel. By the direction of Headquarters USAF, all TDY aircraft maintenance personnel were to return to the ZI [zone of interior] not later than 30 September 1963. The month of September arrived, necessitating booking and shipping arrangements to be made for the TDY personnel, but only very few replacements had arrived or were forecast to arrive. The result was that by the first of October, 23rd CAMRON and 2nd Air Division was faced with the decision of considerably reducing its operational capability or obtaining additional maintenance personnel from some other source within PACAF.

Specifically, we are providing updated summaries on the planned disposal and reuse of properties, successful conversions, problems that delay planning and implementation, and assistance provided to communities. We are also including a profile of each of the 37 installations in appendix III. Under current plans, over half of the land will be retained by the federal Results in Brief government because it (1) is contaminated with unexploded ordnance, (2) has been retained by decisions made by the base realignment and closure commissions or by legislation, or (3) is needed by federal agencies. Most of the remaining land will be requested by local reuse authorities under various public benefit transfer authorities or the new economic development conveyance authority.

  • Chapter 6 the EARLY MODERN BRIGADE, 1958-1972 Pentomic
    Chapter 6 THE EARLY MODERN BRIGADE, 1958-1972 Pentomic Era Following World War II, the US Army retained the organizational structures, with minor modifications, which had won that war. This organization—which did not include a maneuver unit called the brigade after the two brigades in the 1st Cavalry Division were eliminated in 1949—was also used to fight the Korean War in 1950-1953. Despite the success of the triangular infantry division in two wars, the Army radically changed the structure in 1958 by converting the infantry division to what became known as the Pentomic Division. Ostensively, the Pentomic structure was designed to allow infantry units to survive and fight on an atomic battlefield. Structurally it eliminated the regiment and battalion, replacing both with five self- contained “battlegroups,” each of which were larger than an old style battalion, but smaller than a regiment. A full colonel commanded the battlegroup and his captains commanded four, later five, subordinate rifle companies. The Pentomic Division structurally reflected that of the World War II European theater airborne divisions. This was no surprise since three European airborne commanders dominated the Army’s strategic thinking after the Korean War: Army Chief of Staff General Matthew Ridgway, Eighth Army commander General Maxwell Taylor, and VII Corps commander Lieutenant General James Gavin. Though theoretically triangular in design, the two airborne divisions Ridgway, Taylor, and Gavin commanded in the war, the 82d and 101st, fought as division task forces reinforced with additional parachute regiments and separate battalions. For most of the Northern European campaign, both divisions had two additional parachute regiments attached to them, giving them five subordinate regiments, each commanded by colonels.
