WWII RAF training field in California

My local prison was originally a RAF training field, there are 1 or 2 hangars & some very *air force* looking buildings still standing. This is located in Lancaster Ca between Edwards AFB & AF Plant 42. Tried looking online for old pics etc, found nothing 🙁

Well done that man, The surprize is Quartz Hill Airfield, I know it was on L8, cus thats where I live, but about 3/4mile east of the field, Ride dirt bikes down there a lot. You can almost see my house in some of the pics LOL!
Didn’t realise quite how many of the old buildings remained at War Eagle, often ride past it on the way to Willow Springs raceway 🙂
