| - Glasgow Air Force Base (GAFB) (1957–1968, 1972–1976) is a former United States Air Force base located approximately north of the city of Glasgow, Valley County, Montana, not far from the Canadian border. Prior to DoD ownership, of this land were used as a municipal airport and the rest for agricultural purposes. Today the facility is all but unused, being known as Glasgow Industrial Airport which had 30 aircraft landings/takeoffs in 1991. In recent years, the former Air Force Base has seen intermittent use as a testing site for Boeing aircraft designs. The former base housing area is now the residential community of St. Marie, Montana, though most of the buildings remain vacant.
