==History==
JFTB Los Alamitos has its origin in 1942 when the US Navy established Naval Air Reserve Base Los Alamitos in order to train Naval Reserve fighter pilots during World War II, in addition to hosting aviation units from nearby Naval Air Reserve Base Long Beach. That mission changed one year later when in 1943 the field was re-designated Naval Air Station Los Alamitos and began supporting active duty carrier air wings. In 1972, several California Army National Guard and Army Reserve aviation assets transferred to Los Alamitos resulting in yet another name change to Naval Air Station Los Alamitos Armed Forces Reserve Center. This was followed in 1973 by the California Army National Guard taking operational control of the airfield from the US Navy, and naming it Los Alamitos Army Airfield. The remainder of the base came under California Army National Guard control in 1977, The current name of Joint Forces Training Base - Los Alamitos was adapted in 2000.
