Descripción del sitio
At the beginning of the Second Gulf War in 2003, the US moved its air command centre from Saudi Arabia to Qatar. The expansive
base can host several thousand US troops, in addition to the Qatari air force. While the main headquarters of CENTCOM is at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Florida, the forward headquarters has been at Al Udeid since 2009, when it moved from As Sayliyah, also in Qatar.
