About this product

Product Information

Rapid City Army Air Base was constructed in 1942 and used as a training location for B-17 Flying Fortress heavy bomber aircrews throughout the duration of World War II. After the war, the newly renamed Rapid City Air Force Base (AFB) led the nation's strategic bombardment force, deploying B-29 Superfortresses to Britain during the Berlin Blockade and later flying the B-36 Peacemaker heavy bomber. In 1953, Pres. Dwight D. Eisenhower renamed the base for Brig. Gen. Richard E. Ellsworth, who was killed during a mission over Burgoyne's Cove, Newfoundland. From 1960 to 1994, Ellsworth AFB was a Strategic Air Command superbase containing two legs of the American Strategic Nuclear Triad--heavy bomber aircraft (B-52 Stratofortresses and B-1B Lancers) and land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles (Titan and Minuteman). Today, the personnel at Ellsworth AFB continue to build upon the storied legacy of the South Dakota base, projecting American airpower around the world.

  • Great History

    A great albeit brief history of a base that has stood the test of time (and BRAC). From WWII to the present, Ellsworth AFB has contributed greatly to the preservation of the freedom we enjoy today. Being retired Air Force, and a son of the Black Hills, this book is filled with great memories of my roots, and the men & women who served there. I highly recommend this book as a gateway to pique the interest of anyone wanting to know more about Rapid City Army Air Force/Ellsworth AFB, SD.
