Most of these airfields were under the command of Fourth Air Force or the Army Air Forces Training Command (AAFTC) (A predecessor of the current-day United States Air Force Air Education and Training Command). However the other USAAF support commands (Air Technical Service Command (ATSC); Air Transport Command (ATC) or Troop Carrier Command) commanded a significant number of airfields in a support roles. It is still possible to find remnants of these wartime airfields. Many were converted into municipal airports, some were returned to agriculture and several were retained as United States Air Force installations and were front-line bases during the Cold War. Hundreds of the temporary buildings that were used survive today, and are being used for other purposes. ==Major Airfields== Second Air Force * Alamogordo AAF, Alamogordo〔Mueller, p. 248〕 : Now: 20px Holloman Air Force Base * Clovis AAF, Clovis : Now: 20px Cannon Air Force Base〔Mueller, p. 60〕 * Kirtland Field, Albuquerque : Now: 20px Kirtland Air Force Base Air Technical Service Command * Albuquerque AAF, Albuquerque (merged into Kirtland Field in 1944) Army Air Forces Training Command * Carlsbad AAF, Carlsbad : Now: Cavern City Air Terminal * Deming AAF, Deming (reassigned to Second Air Force in 1944) : Now: Deming Municipal Airport * Fort Sumner AAF, Fort Sumner : Now: Fort Sumner Municipal Airport * Hobbs AAF, Hobbs : Was: Hobbs Army Airfield (1942-1948) : Now: Hobbs Industrial Air Park * Roswell AAF, Roswell : Was: Walker Air Force Base (1947-1967) : Now: Roswell International Air Center (RIAC) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Mexico World War II Army Airfields」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
