It is still possible to find remnants of these wartime airfields. Many were converted into municipal airports, some were returned to agriculture and several were retained as United States Air Force installations and were front-line bases during the Cold War. Hundreds of the temporary buildings that were used survive today, and are being used for other purposes.
Note: Airports at Cumberland, Elkins, Moundsville and Buckhannon were also used by the USAAF during the war, however their use has not been determined.
