This channel is dedicated to educating and informing the public by highlighting the missions of the 315th Airlift Wing, located at Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina. The 315th AW, along with our Active Duty counterparts from the 437th AW, provides a large part of Air Mobility Command's Global Reach airlift capability. This rapid, flexible and responsive air mobility promotes stability in regions by keeping America's capability and character highly visible.
Our primary mission is to provide and deliver global combat-ready C-17 airlift, expeditionary combat support and aeromedical evacuation anytime, anywhere and our vision is to be AFRC's wing of choice...integrated, experienced, relevant.
The 315th AW has three major functional areas and nineteen subordinate units, which operate under the direction of three group commanders. These areas are operations, logistics, and support and aeromedical evacuation.
