(H.C.R.276) Offered by: All Members of the House Offered by: All Members of the Senate Whereas, as long ago as World War I, the Vermont National Guard included aviation units, and this remained true through World War II, and Whereas, however, as World War II was concluding, the prospect of a National Guard aviation presence at the Burlington Airport was uncertain, and Whereas, on May 28, 1946, the Burlington Board of Alderman voted to deed to the State of Vermont the needed land for the construction of two hangars and the rights of way to use the runways, and Whereas, on July 1, 1946, the U.S. Army Air Force announced the establishment of the Vermont Air National Guard (VTANG), and Whereas, the VTANG’s first commanding officer was Lt. Colonel William Bowden, and the original contingent of veteran World War II pilots numbered 25, and Whereas, on August 14, 1946, the U.S. Army Air Force designated the VTANG as the 134th Fighter Squadron, and the VTANG’s dual mission included assisting in State disasters and emergencies and supporting federal aviation defense efforts, and Whereas, the U.S. Army Air Force sent AT-6 and L-5 trainers, and a C-47 “Gooney bird” transport plane, but a fleet of far superior Thunderbolt aircraft arrived soon thereafter as replacements for the original airplanes, and Whereas, in 1948, the Burlington electorate approved a $150,000.00 bond as the city’s contribution towards airport improvements,

    DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FOR THE UPDATE AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE TOTAL FORCE TRAINING MISSION FOR VISITING UNITS (OPERATION SNOWBIRD, MULTI-SERVICE, AND FOREIGN MILITARY SALES) DAVIS-MONTHAN AIR FORCE BASE, ARIZONA September 2014 1 Cover Sheet 2 Environmental Assessment for the 3 Update and Implementation of the 4 Total Force Training Mission for Visiting Units 5 (Operation Snowbird, Multi-Service, Foreign Military Sales) 6 Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona 7 8 a. Responsible Agency: United States Air Force (Air Force) 9 10 b. Proposals and Actions: The Air Force proposes to update and implement the Total Force 11 Training Mission at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base (DMAFB), Arizona. The implementation of 12 that program would support a year-round training mission designed to build and maintain the 13 readiness of military units composing the Total Force of the Department of Defense (DoD), so 14 that they are capable of supporting extended combat and other national security operations, 15 including joint coalition air operations and multi-service activities, all of which increasingly 16 require greater interoperability. DoD Active and Reserve Units would participate and coordinate 17 a portion of the training. Foreign Military Sales (FMS) units from U.S. ally Nations would also 18 participate in the training. Air National Guard (ANG), operating under their ongoing program 19 known as Operation Snowbird (OSB), would also participate and coordinate a portion of the 20 training. OSB is a program that is managed by ANG’s 162nd Fighter Wing (162 FW), 21 Detachment 1 (Det 1). The Preferred Alternative would increase the annual number of sorties 22 from the 1,408 sorties flown in 2009 (i.e., the baseline) to 2,326; this level of activity represents 23 approximately 6 percent of the total airfield operations flown at DMAFB (4,652 visiting unit 24 operations/80,045 total DMAFB operations).
