Cannon Air Force Base, home of the 27th Special Operations Wing, lies in the high plains of eastern New Mexico,
near the Texas Panhandle. The base is eight miles west of Clovis, New Mexico, and is 4,295 feet above sea level.
The base itself sits on 3,789 acres of land.
The history of the base began in the late 1920s, when a civilian passenger facility, Portair Field, was established
on the site. Portair, a terminal for early commercial transcontinental flights, flew passengers in the Ford Trimotor
"Tin Goose" by day, and used Pullman trains for night travel. In the 1930s, Portair was renamed Clovis Municipal
Airport.
The war years saw the introduction of heavy bomber training to the Llano Estacado (Staked Plains). Clovis
Municipal Airport quickly became Clovis Army Air Field in September 1942. Post-war demobilization saw flying
operations nearly cease with the exception of the rare refueling of transient aircraft. By May 28, 1947, Clovis Army
Air Field 'closed its doors' as the base was placed on the inactive list. The base, even while closed, remained in
the hands of Air Training Command until late July 1951, when Tactical Air Command obtained it. At that time the
140th Fighter-Bomber Wing, an Air National Guard unit, was activated and stationed at Clovis Air Force Base.
Cannon AFB is named in honor of the late Gen. John K. Cannon, former commander of the Tactical Air
Command. The base was officially named Cannon AFB on June 8, 1957.
On February 18, 1959, the recently-renamed Cannon Air Force Base entered into a relationship with the
27th Fighter Wing that continues to this day, albeit, with a new mission--that of special operations. As a result of
Cannon AFB's transition from Air Combat Command to Air Force Special Operations Command on October 1,
2007, the 27th Fighter Wing was re-designated the 27 SOW.
The primary mission focus of the 27th Special Operations Wing is to provide and enable precise, reliable, flexible
and responsive airpower for operational commanders while sustaining and growing a premier Air Force
installation.
