Charleston AFB, home of the 437th Airlift Wing, is located about 10 miles from downtown Charleston on approximately 3400 acres of land within the North Charleston city limits. The 437th Airlift Wing is part of the Air Mobility Command (AMC) and is aligned under 21st Air Force at McGuire AFB, NJ. Our mission is one of the most exciting in the Air Mobility Command and takes us to all parts of the world, sometimes at a moment's notice. Not only are we the command's premier airlift base, we're also the first home of the Air Force's newest airlifter, the C-17 Globemaster III. With the C-17 as our primary weapons system, Team Charleston provides airlift for all services of the Department of Defense and other government agencies worldwide. The 437th Airlift Wing's rich tradition of excellence includes a close partnership with the 315th Airlift Wing (Reserve Associate). Together, we provide trained people to help accomplish the mission in every work area of the base. We proudly call ourselves "Team Charleston," a concept that has caught on at other bases throughout the Air Force. It means everyone working together - and our team encompasses everyone: active duty, civilians, air reserve technicians, families, retirees and volunteers. Together, we are committed to providing our customers with the quality support they deserve...that is our primary objective. | |
