Andersen Air Force Base is a United States Air Force base located primarily within the village of Yigo in the United States territory of Guam.

The two bases are about 30 miles apart at opposite ends of the island. Established in 1944 after the Liberation of Guam as North Field, it is named for Brigadier General James Roy Andersen.
