In June 1948, in response to a Soviet blockade on West Berlin, Allied powers began transporting supplies through an airlifting campaign that lasted until September 1949. The U.S. involvement of this campaign was known as Operation Vittles, with a combined airlift task force established at Wiesbaden Army Airfield in Wiesbaden, West Germany. In recognition of this history, U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden has hosted past events celebrating major milestones of the anniversary of the Berlin Airlift. Following this tradition, USAG Wiesbaden, together with the State of Hesse, will host a public commemoration of the 75th anniversary of the end of the Berlin Airlift on June 16, 2024, on Clay Kaserne Airfield.
