Since the early 1900s, the men and women of the Washington Air National Guard have served our state and nation nobly. Today, more than 2,000 citizen-airmen across the state support the Washington Air National Guard and lead a variety of missions – from refueling military jets, to enhancing cyber security, to providing much needed assistance during state emergencies.

Comprised of two wings – the 141st Air Refueling Wing in Spokane and the 194th Regional Support Wing on Camp Murray – as well as the Western Air Defense Sector at Joint Base Lewis McChord, the Washington Air National Guard offers our state and nation cutting edge capabilities to increase our security.

The Air National Guard was made an official component of the U.S. Air Force in 1947, following the great aerial battles of World War II. Like the Air Force Reserve, the Air National Guard is made up of Citizen Airmen who train part time, close to home, until called upon for duty. These professionals serve both the federal and state governments — assisting their communities and helping the U.S. Air Force guard Americas skies.

Today the Air National Guard is an essential component of the U.S. Air Force. Currently, this Force is made up of 99,916 Air National Guard personnel. There are more than 140 Air National Guard units throughout the U.S. and its territories with varying service options for a Guardsman to choose from.
