Brookley Air Force Base

: ''For the civil use of Brookley AFB after 1969, see: Mobile Downtown Airport''
Brookley Air Force Base is a former United States Air Force base located in Mobile, Alabama. After it closed in 1969, it became what is now known as the Mobile Aeroplex at Brookley.
== History ==
Brookley Air Force Base had its aeronautical beginnings with Mobile's first municipal airport, the original Bates Field. However, the site itself had been occupied from the time of Mobile's founding, starting with the home of Mobile's founding father, Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne, Sieur de Bienville, in the early 18th century.〔Delaney, Caldwell. ''The Story of Mobile'', page 32. Mobile, Alabama: Gill Press, 1953. ISBN 0-940882-14-0〕
In 1938 the Army Air Corps took over the then Bates Field site and established the Brookley Army Air Field.〔Thomason, Michael. ''Mobile : the new history of Alabama's first city'', page 213. Tuscaloosa : University of Alabama Press, 2001. ISBN 0-8173-1065-7〕 The military was attracted to the site because of the area's generally good flying weather and the bay-front location, but Alabama Congressman Frank Boykin's influence in Washington was important in convincing the Army to locate the new military field in Mobile instead of Tampa, Florida.〔Thomason, Michael. ''Mobile : the new history of Alabama's first city'', page 210. Tuscaloosa : University of Alabama Press, 2001. ISBN 0-8173-1065-7〕 However, later that year, Tampa was also chosen for a military flying installation of its own, which would be named MacDill Field, home of present-day MacDill Air Force Base.
