description: This document presents the results of an inventory conducted in May 2007 of Cold War era structures at Elmendorf Air Force Base. Of the 163 structures inventoried, 10 were judged to have specific and important association with historically important Cold War themes. This includes structures in two proposed historic districts, the North Flight line Historic District, and the Elephant Cage Historic District, and two additional structures. These structures are all associated with one of three historically important Cold War themes: (1) command, control, and communications, (2) intercept capability, and (3) intelligence gathering.
