INTRODUCTION
When the Allies invaded Normandy on D-Day, the 6th of June 1944, US Army
Air Forces (USAAF) engineers were among those in the initial assault waves .
Their mission was to rapidly construct forward operating airfields, known as
Advanced Landing Grounds (ALGs), on the continent . As the Allied armies
advanced across France and into Germany, several hundred airfields were built
or rehabilitated for use by the allied air forces . For security reasons, the

the maximum close air support for the invasion force, it was desirable for the
tactical forces to be based within one hundred miles of the front lines .l
Since the battle lines could change dozens of miles in a single day, the
requirement was for a mobile air force that could rapidly construct and occupy
airfields and keep pace with the advancing troops .
This responsibility was placed in the hands of USAAF's Ninth Air Force and
its specially created engineering arm, the IX Engineer Command . Each aviation
engineer battalion in the command (of a total of sixteen) was composed of suf
ficient men and equipment to quickly construct. an airfield or landing ground*
for a single tactical fighter or bomb group unit . Based on the experience
obtained in the North African and Italian campaigns, fighter groups required
an airfield 120 feet x 3600 feet long, and fighter-bomber groups required
fields 120 feet x 5000 feet long (Figure 1) . Medium bomb groups required 120
feet x 6000 feet runways (Figure 2) . Instead of using rough, unimproved dirt
strips, engineers used surfacing material necessary to strengthen the soil to
support the weight of the aircraft and as a measure of insurance against the
wet weather . 2
The surfacing material selected for the building of advanced landing
grounds during the first weeks after the Normandy invasion was known as square-
mesh track (SMr) . SMP, a British development, was material composed of heavy
*Technically, the term "landing ground" signified a landing area without

an all weather runway and with incomplete facilities . When facilities were
completed or an all weather runway was constructed, the landing area was to be
called an "airfield ." It was common practice, however, for the generic term
"airfield" to be used regardless of the technical status of the landing area .

wire joined in three-inch squares . It was chosen over other surfacing
materials because it was very lightweight, allowing sufficient quantities to
be transported across the English channel on overtasked landing craft . 3
Easily workable, a SMf landing mat for fighters could be layed like a carpet
in about one week .
On D--Day, engineer aviation battalions stormed ashore alongside US Army
infantry battalions and headed toward preselected sites to build airfields .
Before the end of the day, an emergency landing strip was completed at
Poupeville and by 8 June a transport field was constructed at St Laurent sur
Mer (A-21), thus becoming the first wartime American airfield in. the con-
tinental ETO . Construction continued at a rapid pace on other fields using
SMf . Several of these fields were initially used by Ninth Air Force groups on
a "roulemont" basis . Fighters based in England could be refueled and rearmed
at the forward field, conduct their missions and then return to England if
greater maintenance services were required .4
In mid-June 1944, in the absence of German fighter opposition, the Ninth
Air Force decided to use its fighters in a fighter-bomber role, thus requiring
all planned fighter fields on the continent be built as 120 feet x 5000 feet
fighter-bomber strips . Although this created some SMf supply difficulties, by
the end of June 1944, eight Ninth Air Force fighter groups were conducting
tactical bombing missions from ten operational airfields in the Normandy
beachhead . 5
After the initial batch of airfields was completed using SMr, the Army
aviation engineers switched almost exclusively to another surfacing material

known as prefabricated hessian (burlap) surfacing (PHS or PBS) . Light and
easily transportable, PHS did not create the dust problem encountered with SMr
fields . Made of an asphalt-impregnated jute delivered in rolls 300 feet in
length and 36 inches or 43 inches in width, PHS was layed in overlapping
layers to produce a dust--free fair weather surface . 6 It was also common to
build airstrips using both SNP and PHS, laying SMT on top.
To provide an all season durable airfield for the Ninth Air Force's
medium and light bombers, a third type of surfacing material known as pierced
steel plank (PSP)*, was introduced on the Normandy bridgehead in July 1944 .
It consisted of 10 feet long, 15 inch wide steel planks joined together and
layed perpendicular to the line of flight . Long used in other theaters, PSP
would have been ideal for all airfields on the continent, but its limited
availability and greater weight made this impractical . Moreover, because of
supply problems, construction of even a PSP fighter-bomber field could take a
month or longer, while similar PHS and SMr fields could be constructed in two
weeks and one week, respectively .?
By the end of July 1944, all but three of the Ninth Air Force's twenty
fighter groups were based on the SMT and PHS-constructed advanced landing
grounds on the continent . 8 The rapid advance of the Allied armies following
the breakout through the Normandy hedgerow country produced a new rush of
airfield construction as the tactical air force units sought to keep pace with
*Also known as "Marston mat ."

the advancing armies . This breakthrough period, which lasted from late July
to mid-September 1944, was characterized by the "leapfrogging" of air force
units as they alternately occupied and abandoned airfields behind the front
lines . The airfield construction policy following the breakout of the beach-
head area called for tactical airfields in "clutches" of four or five
airstrips, enough to provide room for the fighter groups of a tactical air
command plus an air depot group . 9
During this time of constant movement in late 1944, almost all new air-
fields built used PHS material . So swift was the allied offensive, however,
that the airfields were almost out of effective range of the front before they
were completed . To help overcome this situation, captured German airfields
were cleared of mines and craters and repaired . In fact, it was found that
German airfields could be rehabilitated and made operational sooner than
airfields built on virgin sites . 10
Another unforeseen development was the extraordinary demand for
transport, supply, and evacuation fields as the Allied armies pushed past
Paris toward the German frontier . In late 1944, supplies could not keep pace
with General Eisenhower's forces, and to help lessen the supply shortage,
1.20 feet x 3,000+ feet airfields for C-47 planes became a priority (Figure 3) .
Bringing in ammo and gasoline, the C-47's on the return trip evacuated wounded
to the rear .
By 15 September 1944, IX Engineer Command had placed over eighty air
fields in operation, while British engineers had constructed seventy-six

fields in their zone- 11 In Southern France, another twenty or so fields had
been built by American engineers from the Mediterranean Theater of Operations
(MM) . In October these uncoded Mr'o airfields were assigned to the M and
given code numbers .
The stabilization of the front lines in Holland, Belgium, and eastern
France in mid-September 1944, which would last into the new year, allowed
aviation engineers a chance to reorganize and prepare for the upcoming winter
season . As expected, they could not build new PHS and SMf strips during the
fall rain and winter snow seasons because of the moist ground . Besides
concrete, the American--made PSP was the only available surfacing material that
could be laid down during this inclement weather in Europe . Selected air-
fields in Belgium and France were therefore "winterized" with PSP . Because of
the limited supply of PSP, however, only a limited number of airfields could
be winterized, making it necessary to base two group sized units per

airfield . 12 sufficient fighter-bomber and medium bomber airfields were
completed that winter to ensure Ninth Air Force aircraft could continue flying
combat missions .
The major problem affecting airfield construction in early 1945 was not
the surprise German Ardennes counteroffensive (which caused the abandonment on
only one airfield -- Y-39, Hagenau) . Rather, an early February thaw threatened
to make airfields inoperable due to the mud and water . Using local civilian
labor, engineers performed extensive maintenance on the threatened airfields
and successfully resolved the crisis . 13
The renewed allied offensive in early 1945, following the Battle of the
Bulge, was supported in earnest by the building of tactical airfields in
occupied Germany . Trier (Y-57), became the first operational tactical
American airfield on German soil on 10 March 1945 . When a crossing over the
Rhine River was spearheaded at Remagen, Germany, a supply and evacuation strip
was quickly set up to support the bridgehead . As Allied tank colurens struck
out rapidly into the heartland of Germany, the airfield "clutches" of the
Ninth Air Force's tactical air commands moved east of the Rhine river within
range of virtually any target in Germany . 14 Scores of Luftwaffe sod and hard
surfaced airfields were captured in the lightning advance, virtually un-
damaged, lessening the requirement for SMT, PHS, and PSP prefabricated sur-
facing . The relative lack of German military opposition in late March, April
and May of 1945 lessened the need for close air support and produced a greater
demand for supply strips to keep the offensive moving . 15 Every opportunity
was used to clear captured German airfields for use along the armies' route,
allowing C-47's and other transports to land with food, gas, and ammunition .
The supply effort received top airfield priority . By V-E Day, 9 May 1945, 76
of the 126 airfields made operational east of the Rhine river were strictly
supply and evacuation fields . 16
American engineers constructed or rehabilitated over 280 continental air-
fields in the EPU from D-Day to V-E Day (Figure 4, located at end of guide) .
In the summer months that followed, a few new airfields were constructed, but
dozens more were abandoned . The airfield coding system remained in effect
until after the Japanese surrender in the Pacific, when, on 14 September 1945,
the system was officially discontinued . Thereafter, airfields were referenced
by their geographic name .17

U .S . ARMY AIR FORCES CONTINENTAL AIRFIELD (ETO) LIST
This listing is divided into three parts . Part I, the numerical listing,
includes all USAAF continental airfield codes . Part II, the alphabetical
listing, includes official and alternative names of the airfields . Part III
is a listing of British (B-) continental airfields as of l July 1945 .
Explanation of terms :
Code No . The Army Air Forces code number assigned . Alternative codes
appear in parenthesis .
NOTE : Some A-coded airfields initially carried C, N, or D suffixes to

distinguish airfields with courier, night landing or air depot
facilities respectively . (Example : A-21C, A-8N, A-9D) . Addition-
ally, Y-coded airfields were originally designated AY-coded air-
fields . These variations are not represented in the listings .
Airfield Name/Location . The official name of the airfield with the

country of origin .
Airfield
Initial_ODate . The date the airstrip was declared operational for

allied military use .
Date of Release . The date the airstrip was abandoned or released

from USAAF control .
Combat Units _Staticned Date . USAAF combat units assigned to the airfield
between 6 June 1944 to 9 May 1945 . The primary units listed are combat
groups . Squadrons are listed only when the squadron is assigned to an
airfield different from its parent group . Units above the group level
are not listed . If no major combat unit occupied the field, the type of
field is given . Various French Air Force (FAF) and Royal Air Force (RAF)
units that were assigned to these airfields are not listed .
The dates given were obtained from the official lineage and honors
histories in Maurer Maurer's Air Force Combat Units of World War II and
Combat Squadrons of the Air Force, World War II . Discrepancies were
resolved by a check of the actual unit histories on file at the USAF
Historical Research Center .
NOTE : Fighter, bomber, troop-carrier and reconnaissance groups and

squadrons were stationed exclusively at letter coded airfields .
Because liaison squadrons could operate out of short fields and
on unprepared surfaces, they were not always stationed at a letter
coded airfield . These uncoded "airfields" are not represented in
the listing .
