Deep Creek

Due to Fairchild’s transition from Spokane Army Air Depot to United States Air Force Strategic Air Command in 1947, Fairchild was selected as one of the original five installations to receive an operational storage site. The area became known as Deep Creek Air Force Station at Fairchild AFB. The operational storage sites were smaller alert facilities that held key strategic importance owing to their neighboring locations of various Strategic Air Command bases. (Courtesy photo)
