GREENE COUNTY, OH – One of the tornados that swept through Ohio on February 28th has caused significant damage to a hanger at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. The hanger was being used as a restoration shop for older military aircraft. So far the Air Force Base hasn’t given out a full report of the damage
“Our initial assessment from this morning’s storm is the damage is isolated to the southern side of Area B. Our initial focus right now is on safety and damage assessment,” said Col. Travis Pond, 88th Air Base Wing and installation commander. “I can’t speak highly enough about our security forces, Fire Department and civil engineer Airmen for their quick response and hard work to assess damage and determine a path forward for restoring operations as quickly as possible.”
