Hickam AirForce Base is a U.S. AirForce base located in the city and county of Honolulu on the island of O'ahu, Hawai'i.
By December, the "Hawaiian AirForce" had been an integrated command for slightly more than one year and consisted of 754 officers and 6,706 enlisted men, with 233 aircraft assigned at its three primary bases (Hickam, Wheeler, and Bellows).
After World War II, the AirForce in Hawai‘i was primarily comprised of the Air Transport Command and its successor, the Military Air Transport Service, until 1 July 1957 when Headquarters FarEastAirForces completed its move from Japan to Hawai‘i and was redesignated the Pacific AirForces.
