Summary

Kearns Army Air Base was a U.S. Army Air Base seven miles (11 km) southwest of Salt Lake City, Utah. It served in many roles. Despite being referred to as air base, it had no runways and no airplanes could land near there. It was not associated with Salt Lake City Municipal Airport No. 2 (now South Valley Regional Airport), which bordered Kearns to the south, which was a small general aviation airport.

At right is an Area Map of Kearns dated 6/25/43 when it was a technical training center. On the west side is a railroad spur to the base.
