619 MAW

The 619th Military Airlift Wing (619 MAW) was a unit of the United States Air Force established during the Cold War to provide strategic airlift capabilities. Activated in the late 20th century, the wing operated primarily out of Westover Air Reserve Base, Massachusetts, utilizing aircraft such as the C-141 Starlifter to conduct global airlift missions supporting military operations and humanitarian relief. The 619 MAW played a key role in transporting troops, equipment, and supplies during numerous exercises and real-world contingencies. The unit was inactivated as part of broader Air Force restructuring efforts in the early 1990s.
