Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Area B, Building 29, Aero Medical Laboratory, Off Third Street on Northeast side of Area B, Dayton, Montgomery County, OH

Significance: Construction of Building 29 was intended to expand the capabilities of the Physiological Research Laboratory, a research group formed at Wright Field in 1935 to study the effects of human tolerances to the stresses of aviation, and design the equipment necessary to increase these tolerances. Research conducted here during the 1940s, '50s, and '60s was crucial to the aviator's ability to adapt to conditions caused by rapidly advancing aircraft research.
