Renamed
On June 14, 2012 Wiesbaden Army Airfield was renamed "Lucius D. Clay Kaserne" after GEN Lucius D. Clay. Clay was the former U.S. military Governor of Germany and archtect of the rebuilding of Germany after World War II that led to the Marshall Plan. Clay instituted "Operation Vittles" from Wiesbaden Army Airfield in 1948, retiring only after the Soviets lifted their blockade of Berlin. Prior to this renaming, "Lucius D. Clay Kaserne" was the name of a U.S. Army facility in then-West Germany, near the community of Garlstedt. It was the home of the 2nd Armored Division (Forward) from the late 1970s until the unit was deactivated and the facility turned over to the Bundeswehr in the mid-1990s.
