Welcome to the
Ramey Air Force Base Historical Association
This organization was formed to preserve the rich
history of the former Borinquen Field/
Ramey Air Force Base in Aquadilla, Puerto Rico.
The Ramey Air Force Base Historical Association (RAFBHA)
is a nonprofit organization with the sole mission of
keeping the history of Borinquen Field/Ramey Air Force Base alive.
The Association was created in 1997 by men, women and
families who were stationed at Borinquen Field/Ramey Air Force Base during
the Cold War years and has been growing ever since.
We invite each of the thousands of airmen who passed through
the base during its operational history to join our association.
Join Now
With your help, we will continue to further our mission.
The airmen and their families stationed in this corner of paradise
still carry fond memories that continue to be part of their lives.
We ask you to reconnect with Ramey and rekindle your
“Spirit of Ramey.”
