Along with Naval Base Guam, Andersen AFB was placed under the command of Joint Region Marianas on 1 October 2009.  The two bases are about 30 miles apart at opposite ends of the island.  Administration offices for Joint Region Marianas are about half-way in between, at Nimitz Hill. [PAR] [TLE] Orote Field [SEP] Orote Field is a former air base in the United States territory of Guam built by the United States Marine Corps and the United States Navy (1921-1931).  It was captured by the Imperial Japanese Navy at the start of World War II and remained under Japanese control until the end of July 1944, when it was taken back by the USMC.  The airfield itself, built on the Orote Peninsula, was one of many on Guam, and was closed for good in 1946, but still sees some use as a touch-and-go training strip used by C-130 Hercules crews located nearby on Andersen Air Force Base.
