About Wheeler AFB, Hawaii

Wheeler AFB is a community of 2,412 people in Honolulu County, on the central plateau of O'ahu beside Schofield Barracks. On February 6, 1922, Lieutenant William T. Agee led 20 enlisted men over from Luke Field to the old drill grounds of the 17th Cavalry Regiment. They cleared out weeds, guava and algaroba trees and raised two canvas hangars. On November 11, 1922, the new airfield was named for Major Sheldon H. Wheeler, the Luke Field commander who had died in a plane crash on July 13, 1921.

Permanent buildings did not start going up until 1930. By 1940 Wheeler was a main base for Army fighter planes such as the P-40 Warhawk, which guarded the Hawaiian Islands. When the Air Force became its own service in 1947, the post was renamed Wheeler Air Force Base. It was cut back to a caretaker crew a year later, then brought back to full strength in 1952 during the Korean War. The Army took control again on November 1, 1991, and the sign over the main entrance was switched to read Wheeler Army Airfield.

  • Landing point for Pacific pioneersFrom the 1920s into the early 1930s, the Army Air Corps treated Wheeler as its main airfield in Hawaii. In 1927 two Army fliers, L. J. Maitland and A.F. Hengenberger, flew from Oakland, California, to this field without stopping, the first to do so, and the great Dole Air Race from California finished here too. The next year the first plane from Australia landed safely, and Kingsford Smith's Southern Cross used Wheeler on his flights across the Pacific.
  • Amelia Earhart's 1935 flightAmelia Earhart came to Wheeler in 1935 with her Lockheed Vega and took off from here to fly alone from Hawaii to the mainland, the first person to make that trip solo. She came back in 1937 with her Lockheed Model 10 Electra.
  • December 7, 1941Japanese planes hit Wheeler first that morning to keep its many fighters on the ground. Most were wrecked, yet 12 pilots of the 15th Pursuit Group got P-36 and P-40 fighters aloft and scored some of America's first victories of the war. Lieutenant Phil Rasmussen found an old P-36 unharmed, had it armed, took off in a lull and downed a Zero. Wheeler lost 33 killed and 75 wounded.
  • Built as a garden cityWheeler's housing followed the Garden City plan of Sir Ebenezer Howard of England, who meant it as an answer to grim industrial company towns. Its streets curve in loops around green spaces shared by the neighbors, lined with Spanish Colonial Revival homes. The 1941 flightline, hangars and barracks still stand, and in August 1987 the Secretary of the Interior named Wheeler a National Historic Landmark for its part in World War II in the Pacific.
