It serves as headquarters for the United States Air Forces in Europe Air Forces Africa (USAFE-AFAFRICA) and also for NATO Allied Air Command (AIRCOM). Ramstein is located near the town of Ramstein-Miesenbach, which stands outside the base's west gate, in the rural district of Kaiserslautern.The east gate of Ramstein Air Base is approximately 16 kilometres (10 mi) from Kaiserslautern (locally referred to by Americans as "K-Town"). Other nearby civilian communities include Landstuhl, some 5 kilometres (3 mi) from the west gate.Overview86th Airlift Wing.png435th Air Ground Operations Wing.png521st Air Mobility Operations Wing.pngThe host unit is the 86th Airlift Wing (86 AW), commanded as of 15 July 2022 by Brigadier General Otis C. Jones. The 86th Airlift Wing is composed of six groups, 30 squadrons and four bases in Germany, Spain, the Azores, and Belgium. Its mission is the operation and maintenance of airlift assets consisting of C-130Js, C-21s, and C-37A Gulfstream aircraft throughout Europe, Africa and the Middle East.Also at Ramstein is the 435th Air Ground Operations Wing (formerly the 435th Air Base Wing) (435 AGOW), which focuses on base-support responsibilities within the KMC. It is composed of five groups and 20 squadrons. The wing provides rapid mobility and agile combat support for military operations, and maintains expeditionary forces and infrastructure.As of July 2021, the commander of the 435th AGOW is Colonel Bryan T. Callahan.The new 521st Air Mobility Operations Wing stood up on 4 September 2008.[6] As of June 2020, the commander of the 521st AMOW is Colonel Adrienne Williams.Ramstein's wings are assigned to the headquarters 3rd Air Force also based at Ramstein AB that controls most of the USAF Wings throughout Europe.Ramstein AB is part of the Kaiserslautern Military Community (KMC), where more than 54,000 American service members and more than 5,400 US civilian employees live and work. U.S. organizations in the KMC also employ the services of more than 6,200 German workers. Air Force units in the KMC alone employ almost 9,800 military members, bringing with them nearly 11,100 family members. There are more than 16,200 military, U.S.civilian and U.S.contractors assigned to Ramstein AB alone.In 1984, an enlisted airman (Sgt Darrel Dietlein), assigned to the 1964th Communications Group, solicited National Headquarters Civil Air Patrol to charter the first "Cadet Squadron" in Germany, naming the unit "Ramstein Cadet Squadron" and becoming the unit's first commander as a CAP First Lieutenant. The Ramstein Cadet Squadron was formed with Captain Mark Bailey serving as the unit's first liaison officer, as well as other like minded military volunteers and roughly six cadets. To this day, the squadron enjoys vibrant member participation, as well as base support, hosting drill competitions and encampments along with their traditional military studies and aerospace education efforts. The Ramstein Cadet Squadron commander as of February 2019 was Lt Col Chris Blank. The squadron is the parent unit for 2 flights located at Wiesbaden Army Airfield and Patch Barracks, Stuttgart. Membership as of April 2019 was 124 members.In the subsequent years, a companion cadet squadron was formed at Spangdahlem Air Base. Distance learning cadets are located at SHAPE, Belgium and Hohenfels, Germany.Current statusFrom 2004 to 2006, Ramstein Air Base underwent an extensive expansion with a major construction project including an all-new airport terminal, among other new facilities, through the so-called Rhein-Main Transition Program which was initiated in support of the total closure of Rhein-Main Air Base on 30 December 2005 and transferring all its former capacities to Ramstein Air Base (70%) and Spangdahlem Air Base (30%).While the KMC remains the largest U.S. community overseas at 53,000 people, the defense drawdown continues to shape its future. Due to the departure of other main operating installations, more than 100 geographically separated units receive support from Ramstein.Ramstein Air Base also served as temporary housing for the United States men's national soccer team during the 2006 World Cup.There is often a Summer Camp to Ramstein from British CCF (RAF) and ATC cadets, as well as Civil Air Patrol encampments and tours like the ones held in July 2015 and June 2016.Currently, Ramstein Air Base consists of two runways09/27 and 08/26two large aprons, one near a hangar north of Runways 27 and 26, and one to the north of 09 and 08. The north-western apron also has a small passenger terminal with two jetways. This means the air base is capable of joint-use operations, although currently there are no scheduled airlines running flights to and from Ramstein.HistoryThe construction of the air base was a project designed and undertaken by the French Army and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers from 1949 to 1952. It was an example of international collaboration: designed by French engineers, constructed by local businesses and large number of temporary and migrant workers of Italy, Portugal, Spain, Greece, and Turkey and operated by Americans.The area was a swamp that had to be built up by two meters (six feet). A train line was laid out from Einsiedlerhof-Kaiserslautern in a yoke shape around to the current base and back down to the Landstuhl spur in 1948 by agreement of the U.S. and French Occupational Forces. Trainloads of earth were moved over the line and spread over the base's current area to raise it to its current level. Once the ground was level, building construction began. Two bases were laid out. Landstuhl Air Base on the south side and Ramstein Air Station (station, no airstrip) on the north. From 1948 to the opening of the bases in 1953, it was the largest one spot construction site in Europe employing over 270,000 Europeans at one time.Previous namesLandstuhl Air Base, 5 August 1952Ramstein Air Base, 1 June 1953Landstuhl and Ramstein were separate bases until 1 December 1957RamsteinLandstuhl Air Base, 1 December 1957Ramstein Air Base, 15 August 1958presentMajor USAF units assigned86th Air Base Group, 5 April 195214 November 196886th Wing (various designations), 21 August 195218 November 1960; 31 January 1973present(86th Air Base Group (later under various designations) assigned as subordinate unit, 21 August 1952)86th Air Division, 18 November 196014 November 19687030th Combat Support Group, 6 April 19531 May 19607030th Air Base Wing, 5 October 196614 June 1985Twelfth Air Force, 27 April 19531 January 19587486th Air Defense Group, 1 May 195425 September 1957322d Air Division, 22 March 195412 August 1955322d Airlift Division, 23 June 19781 April 19927455th Tactical Intelligence Wing, 1 September 19851 July 1992Seventeenth Air Force, 15 November 19597 October 1972; 1 October 200824 April 2012HQ, Atlantic Air Rescue Center (various designations), 8 October 196130 June 197326th Tactical Reconnaissance Wing, 5 October 196631 January 1973HQ, USAFE, 10 March 1973present306th Strategic Wing, 15 August 197630 June 19787th Air Division, 1 July 19781 February 1992316th Air Division, 14 June 19851 May 1991NHQ119 Civil Air PatrolRamstein Cadet SquadronUnit 3395, 1984present377th Combat Support Wing, 14 June 19851 May 1991435th Air Base Wing, 15 January 200416 July 2009435th Air Ground Operations Wing, 16 July 2009present38th Combat Support Wing, 24 May 200530 June 2007 521st Air Mobility Operations Wing, 4 September 2008present FREE scheduling, supersized images and templates.
