well, to be fair fugitive, not all airbases had nice concrete runways and fancy hangars either...nor did all ports have reinforced concrete jettys, docks, ammo bunkers, or vehicle hangars full of tanks and other assorted vehicles. we're talking the main arenas here where the concept of realism is stretched to say the least.
considering how supplies were handled and transported it wouldn't be too far fetched for a vehicle base or port to have ammunition and fuel that could be used by aircraft...
I was stationed aboard the USS Eisenhower for almost 3 years out of Nofolk VA. While at port we COULD take on JP5 fuel for the jets, but there was no place to land them to re-fuel them. There was an airfield a few miles away SEPERATE from our base that the aircrews and jets would be at while we were in port. At neither place did we have tanks and depots for them. Nor were there very many Marine's around
Bases and port are are separate and are not used and "multi-purpose" bases in the many I have visited.
