SUMMARY
Mountain Home Air Force Base began inauspiciously as a small effort to support and train B-24 combat aircrews for the rigors of World War II. Today it represents the only active-duty air force installation in the heart of Idaho. From its shadowy rebirth in the late 1940s to its buildup under Strategic Air Command, the base housed some of the cold wars most important assets in the battle against communism. Mountain Homes most recent and longest-serving tenant is the world-famous 366th Fighter Wing Gunfighters. Under the stewardship of the Gunfighters, Mountain Home has been transformed from a remote, dusty World War II airstrip to one of the air forces premier training facilities, readying aircrews and their support agencies for the demands of modern warfare.Mailes, Yancy D. is the author of 'Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho (Images of America Series)', published 2007 under ISBN 9780738548050 and ISBN 0738548057.
