    Aerial views of Fort McCoy's Young Air Assault Strip

    An aerial view of Young Air Assault Strip is shown Aug. 4, 2020, on South Post at Fort McCoy, Wis. Young Air Assault Strip, which has also been called Young Field, originally opened in October 1984. It was constructed by the 618th Engineer Company, 360th Engineer Battalion, 82nd Airborne Division. The air strip was named after Pfc. Raphael Young, a member of the 618th who died in September 1984 while training on heavy equipment in advance of the mission to build the air strip. The austere air strip offers unique training for military aviation units year-round. The strip’s use is managed by the Fort McCoy Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilzation and Security.
