Does anybody know the answers to the tanker questions and population wise how large was the base at its largest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

star2city Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Wiki link: GFAFB had 10,474 people in 1970 (making it the 9th largest city in ND at the time) It may have been even larger in the 60's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risky Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I didn't realize we had that many tankers. I guess if we are able to get our foot back into the door with 4 to 12 tankers we might have a pretty good chance to get more. If we are able to get some tankers it is a real good sign for the future. Thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They started out with 4 squadrons and slowly broke them down one by one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
