Myrtle Beach Air Force Base Part One

Myrtle Beach Air Force Base was closed in 1993. The Warbird Park is on display next to the former main gate in a wooded area. It displays the F-100D Super Sabre assigned to the 354th TFW 1956-1970, A-7 D Corsair II assigned to 354th TFW 1970-1977, and the A-10A Thunderbolt II assigned to the 354th TFW 1977-1992. The park also features a trail lined with historic displays of the base history. Part of the trail leads to an observation area of aircraft taking off from the Myrtle Beach International Airport. the Wall Of Service is also available for view containing engraved black granite nameplates of Airmen who served on the base. If you or someone you knew served on this base and would like to have your name placed on this wall, please follow this like.

A very nice surprise. I was stationed there as the EMO from '70-'72. Many fond memories. I could cry when I see it now.

Very nice website. I was stationed here in 1975 as a A7 crew chief. Glad to see that it hasn't been forgotten.

I began visiting the Myrtle Beach area in the early/mid 80's. I can remember when the Air Force base was there and you used to see the A-10's and other aircraft flying over the Atlantic Ocean and inland over the Strand.Myrtle Beach will always hold a special place in the Hearts of Me and My Family. Thank You sharing these videos with us. It will help us get thru the Winter a little quicker , until we go back next Summer. Thanks again!
