 The 446th Airlift Wing is Washington State's only Air Force Reserve flying unit and is headquartered at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (McChord Field), Wash. The mission of the wing is to provide citizen warriors and maintain equipment to meet America's global airlift requirements.
The nearly 2,400 men and women assigned to the wing's command staff, three groups, 13 squadrons and five flights, provide transportation of personnel and equipment in support of U.S. operations worldwide.
Reservists in the 446th AW support the Air Mobility Command mission around the world on a daily basis, performing 44 percent of all missions leaving McChord Field. The 446th AW is nearly a mirror image of the active-duty wing at JBLM, and blends seamlessly into active-duty operations when called upon. |
