Download or read book Onizuka Air Force Base written by Joseph T. Page II and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly five decades, some of the United States military's most secretive operations were conducted out of a collection of nondescript buildings at the intersection of State Route 237 and Mathilda Avenue in Sunnyvale, California. The installation was known by a variety of names in its early years: Satellite Test Center, Air Force Satellite Control Facility, the "Blue Cube," and Sunnyvale Air Force Station. In July 1986, the facility was renamed Onizuka Air Force Base after Col. Ellison S. Onizuka, the first Asian American astronaut, who was killed during the space shuttle Challenger accident. The location was selected due to its proximity to Lockheed Missiles and Space Company's Sunnyvale facilities and supported early satellite reconnaissance programs such as Corona, Gambit, and Hexagon. As the nation's nucleus for satellite command and control, workers at Onizuka Air Force Base directed efforts for the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), US military, and NASA's space shuttle program until the closure of the base in 2010.

Book excerpt: This is a supplement to GAO's 1995 report on military base closures and realignments (GAO/NSIAD-95-133). Many interested parties, including Members of Congress, sent GAO correspondence on base closures. In some instances, the letters and the material provided useful leads. In other cases, the material added support to issues that GAO was actively pursuing. GAO could not follow up on many of the points raised because of the limited time available to GAO. However, GAO believes that the letters and the materials may be helpful to the Base Closure and Realignment Commission in making future decisions. Consequently, GAO is providing all the letters and the materials to the Commission. This supplement contains copies of the letters and some of the materials.
