No many bases had B-17's at that time. Like Mitchell Field in Mass. MIT institute oversaw secret test flights. But the base you are talking about is Bowling, which is now Bowling AFB, located in Washington DC, next to Anacosta river.

The USAAC is the U. S. military Air Corps. The Air rigidity became component to the army (because of the fact the USAAC) from 1926 until eventually 1947. (in the previous that, 1918-1926 it became common because of the fact the U. S. military Air provider, USAAS.) In 1947 the U. S. Air rigidity became shaped out of the USAAC so something dated in the previous 'forty seven might desire to be USAAC and something after USAF. so which you should your query: "became the USAAC the air rigidity or the army?" the respond is technically the two. It became a element of the army (comparable because of the fact the infantry or artillery etc) which later became its very own provider (USAF)
