The 111th Attack Wing (111 FW) is a non-flying unit of the Pennsylvania Air National Guard, stationed at Horsham Air National Guard Station, Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. If activated to federal service, the Wing is gained by the United States Air Force Air Combat Command. The inactivated 103d Fighter Squadron, formerly assigned to the Wing's 111th Operations Group, was a descendant organization of the 103d Observation Squadron, formed on 27 June 1924. It was one of the 29 original National Guard Observation Squadrons of the United States Army National Guard formed before World War II. ==Overview== The 111th Attack Wing provides protection of life, property, and the preservation of peace and order when tasked to do so by state or federal authorities. The Wing also provides operational and support units, as well as qualified personnel, to support wartime tasking and contingency commitments of any nature. The wing's 103d Fighter Squadron was inactivated in 2010 and the Air Force Reserve 913th Airlift Wing was inactivated in 2007 as a result of BRAC 2005. DoD closed Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Willow Grove, the home station of the 111 FW, in October 2011 and transferred custody of the installation to the Pennsylvania Air National Guard, which renamed it Horsham Air National Guard Station. Currently, the 111th trains on its new missions. The wing hosts several new tenant organizations at the base including units of the Pennsylvania Army National Guard and the U.S. Army Reserve, among others.〔( 111th Attack Wing current status )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「111th Fighter Wing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
