Pomigliano Airfield

Pomigliano Airfield (40°55'40"N / 14°23'20"E) was a military airfield and base established in 1938–39 in Pomigliano d'Arco, southern Italy near Naples. It was attacked on several occasions by the United States Army Air Force. The airfield was later used by the USAAF Twelfth Air Force during the Italian campaign.

Major USAAF units stationed at the airfield were:

• HQ, XXII Tactical Air Command, August-4 October 1945
