So why would the USAF build a hangar tall enough to house a jumbo jet

I'll be the first to admit that I know very little about aviation, but here's a thought: Maybe they plan to put a jumbo jet in there.

Air Force One is a 747, and might occasionally visit if the Pres is to be shown a test flight.

Large cargo planes like the C5 Galaxy might bring stuff over to the base.

Lots of legitimate reasons to have a hanger that would accommodate a large plane.
