	Eielson AFB
		Eielson is located 28 miles south of Fairbanks and is the primary Air Force base in interior Alaska.
		Early nicknames for the base were "Satellite" or "Mile 26" by some workers and "26-Mile Strip" by the brass, probably because it was exactly 26 miles from Fairbanks, past the runway, to the base's gate, even though the north end of the base was only 23 miles from Fairbanks.
		On Feb. 4, 1948, the Air Force changed the name of 26-Mile Post to Eielson Air Force Base in honor of an Arctic aviation pioneer, Carl Ben Eielson, a famous "bush pilot" in the Interior during the 1920s.
