940th Wing

The 940th Wing is a unit of the United States Air Force Reserve, established in 1963 as the 940th Troop Carrier Group. Originally activated at McClellan Air Force Base, California, its early mission focused on airlift and tactical support using C-119 Flying Boxcars. Over the decades, the unit transitioned through various aircraft and missions, including aerial refueling with KC-135 Stratotankers and, more recently, command and control operations. Today, stationed at Beale Air Force Base, California, the 940th Wing supports global operations and readiness as part of the Air Force Reserve Command.
