Their efforts proved successful when on April 8, 1941, the War Department announced Oklahoma City as the site of a new air materiel depot that would cover more than 1,500 acres and employ 3,500 people. A few months later, the Army Air Forces decided to build a huge Douglas Aircraft Assembly Plant next to the depot.<br><br> Just after depot operations began, Maj. Gen. Clarence L.<br><br> Tinker, an Oklahoma native and part Osage Indian, lost his life while leading a group of LB-30 bombers on a mission against the Japanese in the region of Wake Island on June 7, 1942. Accordingly, Gen. H.H.<br><br> "Hap" Arnold ordered the installation named Tinker Field on Oct. 14, 1942. During World War II, Tinker proved its worth as more than 18,000 military and civilian employees repaired and modified B-17, B-24 and B-29 bombers as well as C-47 and C-54 cargo planes.<br><br> They also overhauled thousands of aircraft engines and shipped supplies around the world. Meanwhile, the Douglas Plant, employing close to 24,000 people, produced more than 5,300 C-47 Skytrain aircraft and parts to build 400 C-54 Skymaster cargo planes and 900 A-26 Invader attack bombers. At the end of the war, the Oklahoma City Air Depot acquired the adjacent Douglas Plant complex and moved new workloads into the facilities after the War Department declared Tinker Field a permanent air base.<br><br> Renamed the Oklahoma City Air Materiel Area (OCAMA) on July 2, 1946, the depot continued work on bombers, engines, and aircraft parts. Following the creation of the Department of the Air Force in 1947, the installation officially became Tinker Air Force Base on January 13, 1948. Throughout the decades, Tinker continued to work on aircraft, parts and engines including the B-29 Superfortress, B47 Stratojet, C-97 Stratofreighter, KC-135 Stratotanker and the B-52 Stratofortress, F-4 and F-I05 fighter jets as well as the A-7 attack aircraft and the new TF41 engine.<br><br> OCAMA became the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center (OC-ALC) on April 1, 1974. The next year, the OC-ALC assumed management responsibility for the E-3 Sentry aircraft and the 552nd Airborne Warning and Control Wing activated its units at Tinker AFB on July 1, 1976. In the 1980s, the OC-ALC added management responsibilities for the B-1 Lancer and B-2 Spirit bombers and completed maintenance work on its first B-1 in 1988.<br><br> More depot work on the FI0l, FI07, FI08 and Fll0 engines started in the mid- 1980s along with management responsibilities for a host of engines. Despite a near disastrous fire in Bldg. 3001 in November 1984, OC-ALC workers continued their support of warfighters throughout the world.<br><br> Tinker supported the war efforts of Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm in 1991. A year later, the Navy's Strategic Communications Wing ONE completed its move to Tinker, the first time a Navy wing had relocated to an Air Force base. In 1993 and 1995, Tinker and Oklahoma City survived rounds of base closures, becoming one of three remaining ALCs.<br><br> After terrorists bombed the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City, Tinker people provided humanitarian support and relief efforts. Base workers responded in a similar 6 76th Maintenance Wing (405) 739-9765 fashion after a May 3, 1999, tornado destroyed homes and businesses throughout central Oklahoma and damaged the northwest section of the base.<br><br> Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center (OC-ALC) The Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center is a logistics leader in providing depot maintenance on the Air Force's most sophisticated weapons systems.
