| History (2509 words) |
| The March Field Museum remained in the commissary building until 1993 when the museum moved to its current location on the west side of the runway. |
| In April 1996, upon the realignment and downsizing of March Air Force Base, the museum (all but the airplanes, which remain on loan to USAF) was turned over from the USAF Museum at Wright Patterson AFB, through the Joint Powers Commission, to the March Field Museum Foundation, to be run as a private, non-profit institution. |
| As part of the Air Force's realignment and transition, March's two Reserve units, the 445th Airlift Wing and the 452d Air refueling Wing were deactivated and their personnel and equipment joined under the 452d Air Mobility Wing on April 1, 1994. |
