B-1B bombers and 800 airmen temporarily move from South Dakota to North Dakota for runway construction.

B-1B Lancer bombers and 800 airmen from South Dakota's Ellsworth Air Force Base are temporarily moving to Grand Forks Air Force Base in North Dakota for about 10 months. This relocation allows Ellsworth to begin runway construction for the new B-21 Raider bombers, with Whiteman and Dyess Air Force Bases also set to house the B-21 in the future. Residents near Grand Forks can expect more military vehicles and increased air traffic noise.
