Andersen Air Force Base
Andersen Air Force Base, positioned on the northern limestone plateau in Yigo, is a vital strategic outpost for the United States Military in the Indo-Pacific region. Established in late 1944 as North Field to support B-29 Superfortress bombing raids against Japan, the base played crucial roles in World War II, Operation Arc Light during the Vietnam War, and Operation Linebacker II. Encompassing vast areas of dense jungle, old military housing, and historic WWII runways, Andersen AFB is legendary among military personnel for unexplained encounters with phantom B-29 bombers, ghostly airmen in vintage uniforms, and ancestral Taotaomo'na spirits guarding the surrounding banyan thickets.
