The homesteading era is a fascinating, yet little known, period in the history of Elmendorf Air Force Base (AFB). The land originally claimed by the Dena' in and now claimed by the military, provided, for a short time, homes and livelihoods for a group of Alaska pioneers, referred to here as the Elmendorf homesteaders. They began making entry onto their homestead parcels in 1914, when nearby Anchorage was simply a glorified tent city of railroad construction workers. Through the decades of the...
