Gen. <a href="/wiki/Earl_T._Ricks" title="Earl T. Ricks">Earl T. Ricks</a> announced that the territorial government of Alaska was willing to invest $1.5 million to establish an Air National Guard unit in Anchorage, either at the city's international airport or on Elmendorf Air Force Base. The only condition: that enough people could be recruited to man the unit. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Alaska_Air_National_Guard" title="Alaska Air National Guard">Alaska Air National Guard</a> was organized 15 September 1952 as the 8144th Air Base Squadron. At its creation, the 8144th included 11 enlisted men and five officers. It had no planes. Its headquarters were located in a small office above what was then the bus depot on Fourth Avenue in Anchorage. Because the office was so small, the men convened for their first training assembly in a nearby Quonset hut. </p><p>The unit's first aircraft, a 1941 <a href="/wiki/AT-6D_Texan" class="mw-redirect" title="AT-6D Texan">AT-6D Texan</a> trainer, arrived in February 1953. Soon five more trainers arrived, operating out of Elmendorf AFB Hangar No. 3. In keeping with the Air Guard's mission to provide national air defense, the pilots began training in earnest for their planned transition to jet fighters. </p><p>As that training progressed, the unit was re-designated the 144th Fighter-Bomber Squadron in July 1953. The unit training assemblies were conducted at <a href="/wiki/Elmendorf_Air_Force_Base" title="Elmendorf Air Force Base">Elmendorf Air Force Base</a>. Ultimately, five <a href="/wiki/T-6G_Texan" class="mw-redirect" title="T-6G Texan">T-6G Texan</a> trainers were assigned and everyone was busy getting ready to transition into jet aircraft. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Air_Defense_mission">Air Defense mission</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=144th_Airlift_Squadron&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Air Defense mission"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:144th_Fighter-Bomber_Squadron_-_Group_Photo_-_1953.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/144th_Fighter-Bomber_Squadron_-_Group_Photo_-_1953.jpg/220px-144th_Fighter-Bomber_Squadron_-_Group_Photo_-_1953.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/144th_Fighter-Bomber_Squadron_-_Group_Photo_-_1953.jpg/330px-144th_Fighter-Bomber_Squadron_-_Group_Photo_-_1953.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/144th_Fighter-Bomber_Squadron_-_Group_Photo_-_1953.jpg/440px-144th_Fighter-Bomber_Squadron_-_Group_Photo_-_1953.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1399" data-file-height="933" /></a><figcaption>The newly designated 144th Fighter-Bomber Squadron poses for a picture during the winter of 1953.</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:144th_Fighter_Interceptor_Squadron_-_North_American_F-86E-10-NA_Sabre_51-2845.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2b/144th_Fighter_Interceptor_Squadron_-_North_American_F-86E-10-NA_Sabre_51-2845.jpg/220px-144th_Fighter_Interceptor_Squadron_-_North_American_F-86E-10-NA_Sabre_51-2845.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="164" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2b/144th_Fighter_Interceptor_Squadron_-_North_American_F-86E-10-NA_Sabre_51-2845.jpg/330px-144th_Fighter_Interceptor_Squadron_-_North_American_F-86E-10-NA_Sabre_51-2845.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2b/144th_Fighter_Interceptor_Squadron_-_North_American_F-86E-10-NA_Sabre_51-2845.jpg/440px-144th_Fighter_Interceptor_Squadron_-_North_American_F-86E-10-NA_Sabre_51-2845.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1438" data-file-height="1070" /></a><figcaption>144th Fighter Interceptor Squadron – North American F-86E-10-NA Sabre 51-2845.

By the first annual training period, unit strength has increased to 15 officers and 49 enlisted men, and was fully equipped with 14 F-80s, two T-33s, three T-6G trainers, two T-6 observation planes and a single C-47A transport. </p><p>In 1955, the unit moved from Elmendorf AFB to its own base by the Anchorage Airport. <a href="/wiki/Kulis_Air_National_Guard_Base" title="Kulis Air National Guard Base">Kulis Air National Guard Base</a> was named after First Lieutenant Albert Kulis, an ANG pilot who lost his life while flying his F-80C during a return flight from a night training mission. </p><p>In July 1955 the 144th's F-80s were exchanged for brand-new, top-of-the-line <a href="/wiki/F-86E_Sabre" class="mw-redirect" title="F-86E Sabre">F-86E Sabre</a> fighter jets.

With the arrival of the <a href="/wiki/C-47A_Skytrain" class="mw-redirect" title="C-47A Skytrain">C-47A Skytrain</a> (nickname Gooney Bird), the unit was re-designated the 144th Air Transport Squadron (Light) on 1 July 1957. The 144th is the only Air National Guard unit ever to be assigned C-47's as the primary mission aircraft. The mission of the squadron became the logistical support of the <a href="/wiki/Alaskan_Air_Command" title="Alaskan Air Command">Alaskan Air Command</a> Aircraft Control and Warning (Radar) Sites, all of which were in remote areas with rough gravel runways. </p><p>The C-47 was ideal for this mission, as it could get into and also fly out of the rough small landing strips. Also the C-47 was quite durable, which meant it could handle the weather of Alaska unlike other aircraft. It could land on a snow-covered runway, a frozen lake, and sloping gravel strips in all types of weather. These abilities were not possessed by the larger <a href="/wiki/C-119_Flying_Boxcar" class="mw-redirect" title="C-119 Flying Boxcar">C-119 Flying Boxcar</a> or <a href="/wiki/C-46_Commando" class="mw-redirect" title="C-46 Commando">C-46 Commando</a>.

The 144th later "adopted" the village. The program continued over the years and grew to the point that, by 1972, virtually the entire city of Anchorage supported it. The annual Christmas gifts continued until 1977 when other mission requirements forced the unit to end it. </p><p>In 1960, the aging C-47s were replaced by the larger <a href="/wiki/C-123J_Provider" class="mw-redirect" title="C-123J Provider">C-123J Provider</a>; a tactical airlift transport—and the unit was again re-designated as the 144th Air Transport Squadron (Medium). The C-123Js were equipped with wingtip mounted J-44 jet engines and could handle heavy payloads and also helped offset the drag of the ski modification added to give the aircraft the capability to be operated off frozen runways and icy surfaces. The C-123Js were transferred from the SAC <a href="/wiki/4083d_Strategic_Wing" title="4083d Strategic Wing">4083d Strategic Wing</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ernest_Harmon_Air_Force_Base" title="Ernest Harmon Air Force Base">Ernest Harmon Air Force Base</a>, Newfoundland.
