The airport opened in February 1943 as Louis Schreiner Field and was used by the United States Army Air Forces as a training base. At the end of the war the airfield was determined to be excess by the military and turned over to the local government for civil use.[3] [4] [5]
Trans-Texas DC-3s stopped there until 1959–60.
