Over 200 vintage photographs from the archives of the Air Mobility Museum and other sources provide a sampling of the way it was at Dover Air Force Base through the years.
Dover Air Force Base is the largest aerial port in the United States and home to gigantic jet air transports that are lifelines for our modern military. It started as a municipal airport and has grown and expanded nearly continuously since opening a week after the Pearl Harbor attack in 1941. Its saga is the story of the evolution of the U.S. Air Force from World War II to the present. The pictures in Images of Aviation: Dover Air Force Base represent the thousands of people who called Dover AFB their home, the hundreds of aircraft that have been assigned there, and the dozens of various missions assigned to the facility over the past seven decades.

Estas imágenes ofrecen una visión del pasado de la Base Aérea de Dover a lo largo de los años. La Base Aérea de Dover, el puerto aéreo más grande de los Estados Unidos, alberga gigantescos aviones de transporte aéreo que son vitales para el ejército moderno. Comenzó como un aeropuerto municipal y ha crecido y se ha expandido casi continuamente desde su apertura una semana después del ataque a Pearl Harbor en 1941. Su historia es la evolución de la Fuerza Aérea de los Estados Unidos desde la Segunda Guerra Mundial hasta el presente. Las imágenes representan a las miles de personas que llamaron hogar a Dover AFB, los cientos de aviones que han sido asignados allí y las diversas misiones asignadas a la instalación durante las últimas siete décadas.
