BARKSDALE AIR FORCE BASE
Barksdale Air Force Base is home to the Air Force's newest command, Air Force Global Strike Command. AFGSC, activated in August 2009, is responsible for the nation's three intercontinental Balistic Missile Wings, two B-52 Stratofortress Wings and the only B-2 Spirit Wing.

However, Barksdale has proudly served the Ark-La-Tex (Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas) area for more than 68 years. The base has grown from the cotton fields of northwestern Louisiana in the early 1930s into a major source of revenue and employment for the region including the cities of Shreveport and Bossier City.

Now as a key Air Force Global Strike Command base, Barksdale provides a large part of the nation's deterrent force. The "Mighty Eighth" Air Force, of World War II fame, is headquartered at the base. Barksdale is home to the 2nd Bomb Wing, 2nd Operations Group, 2nd Maintenance Group, 2nd Mission Support Group, the 2nd Medical Group, Eighth Air Force Museum and the Air Force Reserve's 307th Bomb Wing.

HISTORY
Citizens of Shreveport began to take an interest in hosting a military flying field as early as 1924. Two years later the 3rd Attack Wing stationed at Fort Crocket, Texas, began planning for an expansion that would enlarge the base by 500 percent and require at least 20,000 acres for aerial gunnery support and a bombing range.

In early 1928, a young crop duster, Air Corps Captain Harold Ross Harris, was hired by prominent citizens of Shreveport to fly over the local area and find a location suitable for an airfield. Captain Harris selected a sprawling section of cotton plantation near Bossier City, La. A delegation of citizens then travelled to Washington, D.C., to propose the site to the War Department.

After a site visit the Army reported that the site met all requirements of the Air Corps, and Shreveport was selected Dec. 5, 1928. Construction of the worlds' largest airfield at the time began in 1931. More than 1,400 acres of cotton land were plowed under and planted with Bermuda grass. The 20th Pursuit Group, Barksdale Field's first combat organization, arrived from Mather Field, Calif., on Oct. 31, 1932. The group's mission was aerial training to develop procedures and techniques for engaging hostile aircraft. Barksdale Field was dedicated on Feb. 2, 1933. It became the home of The 3rd Attack Wing. The Wing and its subordinate combat groups used Barksdale's immense acreage on the East Reservation to hone their gunnery and bombing skills during the mid-1930s, flying everything from P-12s and P-26s to A-8 "Strikes" and Douglas B-18 "Bolos." The base turned to training bomber crews instead of pursuit and fighter crews in the 1940s using Martin B-26 Marauders, Boeing B-17 Flying Fortresses and Boeing B-29 Superfortresses. The famous 17th Bomb Group, led by Gen. Jimmy Doolittle, trained at Barksdale, as did the Free French and Nationalist Chinese aircrews.

In 1945, Barksdale became headquarters for the Air Training Command and began phasing out B-29 crew training. Barksdale Field was renamed Barksdale Air Force Base shortly after the U.S. Air Force became an independent branch of service in January 1948. The next year the base became home of the first Air Force all-jet strategic reconnaissance/bomber aircraft, the North American RB-45 Tornado, and home to the Second Air Force Headquarters, bringing Barksdale into the Strategic Air Command. The 301st and 376th Bomb Wings brought the Boeing B-47 Stratojet bomber and Boeing KC-97 Stratofreighter aerial tanker to the base during the 1950s. In 1958, the base received Boeing's newest pair of the strategic aircraft: the B-52 Stratofortress and the KC-135 Stratotanker. The 2nd Bomb Wing transferred to Barksdale April 1, 1963, from Hunter Field, Ga., taking over the B-52 and KC-135 mission from the 4238th Strategic Wing. From 1965 and into the 1970s, the 2nd Bomb Wing routinely deployed aircraft and personnel to Southeast Asia for "Arc Light" (B-52) and "Young Tiger" (KC-135) missions in support of the war in Vietnam. Operations over Vietnam dominated most of the wing's resources from 1972 through 1973. Headquarters Second Air Force was inactivated Jan. 1, 1975, and Headquarters Eighth Air Force was installed on Barksdale after being located on Guam for five years in charge of strategic operations for the Vietnam War.

Barksdale received the first operational KC-10A Extender aerial tanker March 17, 1981. The base's fleet of KC-135s and KC-10s remained familiar sights in the skies over northern Louisiana through 1994, when Air Mobility Command consolidated its tanker fleet. Barksdale played significant roles in Operation Just Cause to restore democracy to Panama in December 1989, Operation Desert Shield in August 1990 and Operation Desert Storm in January 1991. The first combat sortie of Desert Storm was launched from Barksdale, when seven B-52Gs flew a 35-hour mission—the longest combat sortie in history at the time—to fire a barrage of conventional air-launched cruise missiles against Iraq. The B-52s from Barksdale that were deployed to Spain dropped 10 percent of all U.S. Air Force bombs during the Persian Gulf War. In September 1996, two Barksdale B-52s fired 13 conventional air-launched cruise missiles on surface-to-air missile sites and air defense radars in Iraq. Dubbed Operation Desert Strike, the mission came in response to Iraqi ruler Saddam Hussein's attacks on Kurds in northern Iraq and was the first combat employment of the B-52H in history.

B-52s and personnel from Barksdale were deployed to Diego Garcia in November 1998 in response to Iraq's refusal to cooperate with U.N. weapons inspectors. U.S. military forces, including Barksdale's B-52s, launched a sustained series of air strikes against Iraq in a three-day-long campaign, dubbed Operation Desert Fox. From March to June 1999, Barksdale B-52s flew more than 180 combat sorties and released more than 6,600 weapons against military targets throughout the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia during Operation Allied Force to halt the brutal Serb expulsion of ethnic Albanians from Kosovo. Shortly after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, the National Command Authority called upon Barksdale forces to spearhead the Global War on Terrorism. Operating from overseas locations, Barksdale warriors and B-52s, both active and reserve, played a key role in Operation Enduring Freedom and the elimination of the repressive Taliban regime of Afghanistan and the destruction of the al-Qaeda leadership and training infrastructure. In March 2003, Barksdale B-52s flew more than 150 combat sorties against military targets throughout the southern half of Iraq in a lightning campaign dubbed Operation Iraqi Freedom, in which U.S. and coalition military forces ousted Saddam Hussein, paving the way for democracy in Iraq. Today, the men and women of Barksdale continue to serve at both home and abroad in support of the Global War on Terrorism.

HEALTH CARE
Medical
Medical care services are offered on a priority basis. First priority of care is to active duty military. Second priority is to TRICARE Prime members enrolled to the 2nd Medical Group. Non-TRICARE Prime beneficiaries are seen on a space-available basis. Those eligible for medical/dental care are referred to TRICARE network providers when services are unavailable.

Dental
Dental care services are available to active duty military only. Only emergency dental care is offered to other eligible individuals.

TRICARE
TRICARE is the health care program for active duty and retirees of the uniformed services, their families and survivors. TRICARE's primary objectives are to optimize the delivery of health care services in the military's direct care system for all military health system (MHS) beneficiaries and attain the highest level of patient satisfaction through the delivery of a world-class health care benefit.

TRICARE coverage is completely portable so it moves with you when you relocate. The TRICARE Prime options include TRICARE Prime and TRICARE Prime Remote in the United States, and TRICARE Prime Overseas and TRICARE Global Remote Overseas in regions outside of the United States. Follow these simple steps to ensure you have no break in coverage when you move:


Do not cancel your TRICARE Prime enrollment option before you move.
Update your personal information in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) immediately when you arrive at your new location.
Select a new primary care manager (PCM), when moving within the same region or submit a new Prime enrollment form within 30 days if you're moving to a new region. Where you are moving will determine which Prime option you will enroll in. If you move to a new Prime service area, transfer your enrollment by submitting a TRICARE Prime Enrollment and PCM Change Form to your regional contractor. Be sure to include all family members who wish to use Prime on the form. TRICARE Standard and Extra are available to family members only. Active-duty service members are required to enroll in one of the Prime options described above. TRICARE Standard and Extra are available throughout the United States, and enrollment is not required. Any active-duty family member who is registered in DEERS may use these programs by seeing any network or non-network provider that is authorized by TRICARE.

If you're already using TRICARE Standard and Extra, moving is easy. When you arrive at your new location, update your personal information in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) immediately. Then find TRICARE-authorized providers in your new area. Here are a few things to remember about using TRICARE Standard and Extra in a new region:


• In the U.S., visit your new regional contractor's website for a list of providers. Remember, if you see network providers, you'll be using the Extra option and pay lower copayments.
• If you move to a new region, you'll have a new claims address for submitting your TRICARE claims.
• Learn your new region's prior authorization requirements as these requirements may differ by region.
