Commissioned in 1942 at Isla Grande, the base supported operations to protect Allied shipping lanes from German U-boat threats and served as a hub for naval aviation in the region. Following the war, NAS San Juan continued to play a key role in regional security and training exercises throughout the early Cold War period.
