19th AW celebrates 73rd birthday
(From left to right) Col. Bernard Smith, 19th Mission Support Group commander, Chief Master Sgt. Steven Hart, 19th Airlift Wing command chief, and Airman Eason Louis, 19th Airlift Wing religious affairs Airman, cut a cake in celebration of the 19th Airlift Wing’s 73rd birthday at Little Rock Air Force Base, Arkansas, Aug. 17, 2021. The wing was originally activated, as the 19th Bombardment Wing, on Aug. 17, 1948, at North Guam AFB, which we know today as Andersen AFB. Over the last seven decades, personnel assigned to the wing have made great accomplishments in bombardment, nuclear deterrence and aerial refueling. It was not until Oct. 1, 2008, that the Black Knights activated at Little Rock AFB as the 19th Airlift Wing to add combat airlift to its list of achievements.
