43rd Arty: 5th Arty Group
U.S. Air Force
The 43rd Artillery, part of the 5th Artillery Group, was an important U.S. Army artillery unit that saw service during the Vietnam War. Activated in the mid-1960s, the 43rd Artillery provided fire support for American and allied ground forces, often operating heavy artillery such as 155mm and 175mm guns. The unit was involved in various major operations, delivering accurate and sustained firepower to counter enemy offensives and support infantry maneuvers. After distinguished service in Vietnam, the 43rd Artillery was eventually inactivated as part of post-war force reductions and restructuring.

43rd FMS ( AGE )
U.S. Air Force
The 43rd FMS (Aerospace Ground Equipment), or 43rd Field Maintenance Squadron (AGE), was a vital support unit within the United States Air Force, primarily stationed at Pope Air Force Base, North Carolina. Tasked with maintaining and repairing aerospace ground equipment, the squadron ensured that aircraft assigned to the 43rd Airlift Wing were always mission-ready. Its highly trained technicians provided critical support during deployments and real-world operations, including humanitarian missions and combat airlift tasks. The 43rd FMS (AGE) played an essential role in sustaining the operational effectiveness of airlift and airborne missions until its inactivation during Air Force restructuring in the early 2000s.
