USAF 943rd Maintenance Squadron Pocket Patch
The 943rd Maintenance Squadron (943 MXS) is part of the 943d Rescue Group (943RQG) is a reserve component of the United States Air Force. It is assigned to Tenth Air Force (10AF) under the Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) and is based in Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona. When mobilized, Air Combat Command (ACC) is the Force Provider that directs Group assets into theater to support wartime tasking like Combat Search & Rescue and other operations, like humanitarian relief. NorthCom may gain Group assets directly from AFRC to support disaster relief, search and rescue tasking in the aftermath of catastrophic events like hurricane, tornado, wildfire, flooding and earthquake, when they occur in the US, or its territories.
Aircraft maintainters from the 943rd Maintenance Squadron and aircrew members from the 446th Airlift Wing, McChord Air Force Base, Wash., use a powered winch on a 446th AW C-17 to load a HH-60G PAVE HAWK helicopter March 7. Two helicopters were loaded and deployed to Patrick Air Force Base, Fla. to augment launch and recovery of Space Shuttle Discovery. All together, 20 Reservists from the 943rd Rescue Group are supporting this mission. U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Ruby Zarzyczny.
