S. and Russia. | | A War Department announcement of the new base came only a few |days after disclosure that a simi- lar heavy tomber field is being installed in Maine—on the oppo- site flank of the northern de- \fense line. The Alaskan base will be locat- |ed at Mile 26—26 miles southeast ‘of Fairbanks—where an alternate landing field was built during the war for use of fighter aircraft 'caught in bad weather. New fac- 'ilities will be for the Strategic Air Command, which operates B- 20s and eventually will be equip- ped with new type heavy bombers. The Mile 26 base -is a link in network of Alaskan defenses: 1ow being improved. Move Against Aggression ! The detense concept includes the theory of immediate retalia- tory action against any aggressive 'move directed at the United States. 'The very heavy bomber bases are being built in accordance with this theory. Here is what the Army Engineer Corps says will be built at Mile 26; |& “new runway”; a hangar sim- ilar to the one ordered for another very heavy komber base at Rapid City, S. D, having a single span tof 340 feet (the B-36 has a wing span of 230 feet); barracks for 400 men; base headquarters build- ing and various workshops and | warehcuses; a spur railroad track 'from Ladd .Field, at Fairbanks. ( The announcement said that |“the facilities are provided ex- pressly for the Strategic Air Com- !mand units stationed in Alaska in the interest of national defense.” i Interception Of Attack : Presumably Mile 26 was chosen ifor several operational and strate- igic reasons. It is in reasonably ,Jlevel country, making it possible for heavily loaded bombers to take off without the necessity of a !rapid rate of climb to avoid moun- |tains. As Alaskan weather goes, lit is in a good weather belt with (a minimum of fog and storm. It .1s situated far enough inland to lallow for fighter interception of |an attack directed at the field from the sea. | An improvement |is underway for jareas in Alaska. program also other military Other Improvements , Improvements at the Elmendorf iField and Fort Richardson include new runways and other changes in landing areas and additional bar- ‘racks and other buildings. For these projects, about 13 million dol- ‘lars has been used out of funds for the current fiscal year and about |$10,500,000 authorized for expendi- ture from the next appropriation. At Nome, minor construction is !reported underway, with an out- [lay of less than $100,000 for the pair of buildings and general re- ,habilitation of the Afmy installa- ition there { The Army saild that the Mile “JU project vill be planned with |the view of using the maximum jamount of materials available lo- cally.” L l The engineers also have issued janother directive for construction ‘of motor pool facilities, laundry (and dry cleaning plant, cen theating and power plant, ware- (house and dock and other utilities rat Whittier Port, Alaska.
