908th Flying Fighter Wing's Family Day

The 908th Flying Fighter Wing held a Family Day at Maxwell Air Force Base on Saturday, April 5, 2025. Personnel with this Wing and their families enjoyed a day filled with games, jumping on inflatable bounce houses, face painting, riding tricycles, videos, vendors such as the American Red Cross and a lunch of freshly grilled hotdogs and hamburgers. The 908th Flying Training Wing is Alabama’s only U. S. Air Force Reserve Wing. It has approximately 1,000 members serving in more than 80 career fields with Traditional Reservists, Air Reserve Technicians, Active Guard and Reserve Members and Civilian Civil Servants. The 908th is currently in the middle of transitioning from a tactical airlift mission, flying C-130H Hercules to becoming the Formal Training Unit for the MH-139A Grey Wolf helicopter.
