Transferred to civilian use and became Grosse Ile Municipal Airport
Naval Air Station Grosse Ile was a Naval air station located on the southern tip of Grosse Ile, Michigan. It operated from 1927 until late 1969, and is now a township airport. During World War II NASGI was one of the largest primary flight training stations for Naval aviators, and RAF pilots. Among the many thousands of Navy pilots who began their careers at NASGI is game show host Bob Barker.[1] Former President George H. W. Bush finished his active Navy career at NASGI attached to Torpedo Squadron 153(VT-153).[2]
