Eastern WV Regional Airport (IATA: MRB, ICAO: KMRB, FAA LID: MRB), also known as Shepherd Field, is a joint civil-military public airport located four miles (6 km) south of the central business district (CBD) of Martinsburg, a city in Berkeley County, West Virginia, USA.
The airport covers 1,015 acres (411 ha) and has one runway. It is mostly used for general aviation, but also serves as a base for the Air National Guard's 167th Airlift Wing (167 AW), an Air Mobility Command (AMC)-gained unit of the West Virginia Air National Guard. The 167 AW operates the C-5 Galaxy and the airport is currently lengthening and strengthening the airport's 7,000 foot runway to better support this aircraft.
In 2007, the airport underwent a renovation which included the removal of the secondary runway, expansion of the main runway, and the renovation of the parking pads for the C-5's. The renovation added hangers for the C-5, as the C-130 hangers were grossly inadequate for the size of the newer plane.
