ACE Tinian.

This is coolbert:

"'If you pay attention in the next few months, you will see significant progress, especially at Tinian North,' . . . 'has extensive pavement underneath the overgrown jungle. We'll be clearing that jungle out between now and summertime,' . . . 'an extensive' facility once construction is complete." -  Wilsbach USAF.

"Interesting... Will Enola Gay ride again?"

"I was interested to read that the US Air Force is restoring the huge World War II North Field air base on the island of Tinian, from which the atomic bomb missions were launched against Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945."

"The U.S. Air Force is stepping up construction at the Tinian North airfield, once used by the largest B-29 bomber fleet during World War II, and at the Tinian International airfield, Gen. Kenneth Wilsbach, commander of the Pacific Air Forces, said in an interview on Wednesday."

"Tinian lies about 200 [120 miles] kilometers north of Guam and is part of the Northern Mariana Islands. Revitalizing the outpost is meant to advance the air force's operational strategy known as Agile Combat Employment"

Fully expect USAF REDHORSE to be fully involved in this endeavor.

See previous blog entries, the topic REDHORSE construction unit USAF:
