He also said that air field operations were returned to normal soon after the May 27 tornado that ripped through Dayton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airforcetimes.com\/news\/your-air-force\/2019\/05\/28\/wright-patterson-assessing-damage-after-tornado-tears-through-ohio\/\" target=\"_blank\">base\u2019s initial evaluation<\/a> estimated that 150 off-base homes at The Prairies at Wright Field were affected by the tornado. Fourteen of those homes were \u201cdeemed uninhabitable,\u201d according to Mayer, though five of those were vacant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis number may climb as more problems are discovered \u2014 especially in vacant units,\u201d he told the Military Times via email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mayer said that most of the damage was in privatized housing, though the streets those homes are on have been cleared of fallen trees and debris at this point. Nine families have been displaced so far due to tornado damage, according to Mayer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBase agencies worked with individual families to ensure they had a suitable housing alternative for them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wright-Patterson also set up a claims center for personnel whose homes sustained tornado damage. So far, the center has fielded 24 inquiries and has received eight claims regarding food spoilage from active-duty airmen, Mayer said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of Wednesday, all roads had been cleared for use and electrical services had been safely restored to the area, according to a <a

release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The \u201c<a
