This display
contains documents, photos and artifacts
from NAAS Manteo which was commissioned
March 3, 1943. NAAS Manteo was used for
special training of more than 20
squadrons, both navy and marines. The
field was especially good for carrier
training, because of over water approach
to the relatively short runways. NAAS
Manteo was placed on caretaker status on
December 15, 1945.
