When Winston Churchill delivered his famous 'Iron Curtain' speech
in 1946, he mentioned two words now engrained in Anglo-American
terminology - 'special relationship'. Nowhere is the 'special
relationship' more evident than in the scores of airfields used by
the United States Army Air Forces during the Second World War.
Today, just a handful remain in active service. Yet they continue
to bind the United Kingdom and United States together. US Air Force
Bases in the UK examines the history and continuing use of
modern-day British airfields by the US Air Force. It also
chronicles the many others that survived the Second World War, but
not the passage of time. While most have been reclaimed by
agriculture, one thing that still endures is the 'special
relationship'. This book retraces its concrete paths.
