The 9th Marine Aircraft Wing (9th MAW) was commissioned on 1 April 1944 at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point , North Carolina .[3] 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing in the role of training, equipping, and preparing East Coast Marine Corps Aviation units for combat. It was also responsible for administering all of the airfields in the Cherry Point area. In late 1944, 9th MAW was almost disbanded in favor of a Marine Air Training Command, East Coast but that idea was never acted upon. The wing was decommissioned on 31 March 1946 in accordance with MarCorps Confidential Dispatch 052213 March 1946. This coincided with the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing returning to the States and assuming control of Marine aviation units on the East Coast. [1]
