176th Wing, Alaska Air National Guard AFJROTC Tour 

Approximately 88 Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps cadets from South Anchorage, West Anchorage and Eagle River high schools visited the Alaska Air National Guard 176th Wing on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, June 13, 2024.
During their visit, the cadets learned about the 176th Wing’s airlift and rescue missions, and they had the opportunity to see multiple aircraft and facilities. The 144th Airlift Squadron operates the C-17 Globemaster III tactical and strategic airlift aircraft in support of Indo-Pacific Command and Air Mobility Command missions worldwide.
The 210th, 211th and 212th Rescue Squadrons make up the 176th Wing Rescue Triad and are among the busiest combat search and rescue units in the world.
