Summary

Description
English: Bourne Field, eventually renamed MCAF St. Thomas, was an air station operated by the US Marien Corps between 1935 and 1948 located at St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. It was home to the VMS-3 Devilbird Marine Observation Squadron until it was dissolved. The Cyril E. King Airport currently occupies the land. The large hanger to the upper left was the airport's first hanger, converted after the conclusion of World War II.
