Military unit
The 448th Supply Chain Management Wing , a wing of the Air Force Sustainment Center of Air Force Materiel Command serves as the Air Force's supply chain manager headquartered at Tinker Air Force Base , Oklahoma.
The wing was first activated in the reserve as the 448th Bombardment Wing in 1949 when Continental Air Command converted its reserve flying organizations under the wing base organization system. It was called to active duty in 1951 for the Korean War , but inactivated a few days when its personnel were transferred to other units.
It was activated again as the 448th Fighter-Bomber Wing in 1955, when it replaced a flying training wing at Hensley Field , Texas. It was inactivated two years later when the Air Force converted its reserve flying units to troop carrier units.
Mission [ edit ]
Plan and execute the Air Force supply chain to enable weapon system employment when and where needed.
History [ edit ]
A-26 of the Air Force Reserve
For additional history and lineage, see 448th Fighter-Bomber Group
The wing was first activated at Long Beach Municipal Airport when Continental Air Command reorganized its reserve flying units under the wing base organization system as the headquarters for the 448th Bombardment Group , which was already stationed at Long Beach,[2] Douglas B-26 Invaders and a variety of trainers. It trained as a reserve bombardment wing under supervision of the 2347th Air Force Reserve Training Center.[1]
