About this Unit

75th Air Base Wing

U.S. Air Force

The **75th Air Base Wing** was activated on November 5, 1947, and has a long legacy of supporting U.S. Air Force operations. Based at Hill Air Force Base in Utah, the wing provides vital base operating support for the Ogden Air Logistics Complex and numerous tenant units. Over the decades, the 75th has managed services ranging from security and civil engineering to communications and logistics. Today, it remains essential in ensuring the readiness and efficiency of one of the Air Force's most critical logistics and maintenance hubs.

Critical Logistics Role: The 75th ABW enables critical depot maintenance and supply chain management for the Air Force’s F-35, F-22, F-16, A-10, and Minuteman III ICBM programs.
Global Reach: The Wing’s services extend beyond Hill AFB, providing support to geographically separated units in Nevada, Wyoming, and California.
Heraldic Symbolism: The 75th ABW’s emblem features a silver falcon, symbolizing vigilance, speed, and air dominance, reflecting its mission to support Air Force readiness.
Community Engagement: The Wing is heavily involved in community partnerships, hosting the biennial "Warriors Over the Wasatch" air show, which attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors.
Environmental Stewardship: The 75th ABW has won multiple awards for environmental management, including efforts to protect endangered species and restore wetlands on Hill AFB.
Vital Training Hub: The Wing manages extensive training facilities, including firing ranges and airfield operations, supporting readiness for both Air Force and joint military missions.
