Clark Field was the first US military airfield in the Philippines. Before Clark there was Fort Stotsenberg, an early US military facility in the Philippines, built in 1902 after the Spanish-American War, the briefest war the US has fought; four months in 1898. Spain ceded to the US the islands of Cuba and Guam and the Philippine archipelago of 7,000 islands. When airplanes were included in the military arsenal, Clark Field was established adjacent to Ft. Stotsenberg. All of our military sites were turned over to the Republic of the Philippines in 1991. When the US Air Force was created in Sept 1947, the name was changed to Clark Air Force Base, and later to Clark Air Base.
