Buckley Air Force Base was founded during World War II when the city of Denver purchased land just east of the city and donated it to the Department of the Army to establish the base for economic improvement of the Denver area. After the war, the installation became Buckley Air National Guard base which in 2000, was transferred the Air Force to officially become Buckley AFB. Since becoming Buckley AFB, the installation has seen rapid growth and modernization including enlisted airmen's quarters, a commissary and base exchange, and Buckley AFB family housing. The Colorado Army National Guard operates the Army Aviation Support Facility at Buckley AFB and manages many of the rotary wing aviation assets.
For short term hotels and interim housing near the base, TDY Lodging has a number of options including extended stays and corporate lodging accommodations within the 2011 government per diem lodging rates for official travel.
