Recently, while organizing a few of my historical research files, I came across one titled “Trumbull Airfield”. Upon looking through the information and documents, I could not help but think that there were probably a great many residents, both newly located and “long timers”, who might not be aware of how the air field was established as well as some of the interesting facts and stories surrounding the air field, now named the Groton-New London Airport.
