 This week, Sulfurge Air National Guard Base accepted military aircraft from bases in the southeastern United States ahead of Hurricane Ian. Sulfurge is a ready, relevant, and reliable airfield for the Department of Defense. With a total of 578,000 square feet of ramp space and an Air Force-operated air traffic control tower, Sulfurge Air National Guard Base has the secure military infrastructure to host multiple aircraft squadrons. Sulfurge has been sanctuary to aircraft in the path of other storms, such as hurricanes Irma and Harvey. The secure storage of assets at Sulfurge has saved the Department of Defense millions of dollars in possible storm damages, and demonstrates the ability of the airfield to house and maintain numerous aircraft. For the 127th Wing Public Affairs Office, I am Staff Sergeant Drew Schumann.
