Lindsey Air Station

Lindsey Air Station, located in Wiesbaden, Germany, served as a key U.S. Air Force installation from 1946 until its closure in 1993. Originally established as part of the post-World War II occupation, it became the headquarters for United States Air Forces in Europe (USAFE) and later the U.S. Air Force Europe Command. The station played a crucial role during the Cold War, supporting air operations, communications, and logistics for NATO forces. Following the end of the Cold War and subsequent force reductions, Lindsey Air Station was returned to the German government in 1993.
