Yesterday, members of the 752d Special Operations Aircraft Maintenance Squadron completed a team-building exercise called "The Amazing Race." The event allowed teams of Airmen and spouses show off their United States Air Force knowledge, athletic skill, and technical expertise in various events around RAF Mildenhall. #aircommandos #AFSOC #specialoperations

Happy Independence Day from the 352d SOW!

Congratulations to Lt Col Christopher Fontana who had the pleasure of assuming command of the newly activated 752d Special Operations Aircraft Maintenance Squadron today. Previously the 352d Special Operations Maintenance Squadron, the CV-22 maintenance unit was inactivated and reactivated under the new designation to recognize the unit in its aircraft generation role. The ceremony was officiated by the 352d Special Operations Maintenance Group Commander, Col Mark O’Reilly, and witnessed by unit members.

Did you know the CV-22 Osprey has 6,200 hp per engine? Check this video out for more information on our long-range infiltration aircraft. AFSOC - U.S. Special Operations Command Europe

Welcome and congratulations to Maj Jesse G. Wilson, who just took command of the 321st Special Tactics Squadron. We look forward to serving with you!

Air Commandos, I am deeply saddened to report that the 352d Special Operations Wing lost one of our own over the weekend. On June 17, 2018 at approximately 5:30pm, SSgt Adam Naber tragically lost his life in a motor vehicle accident. SSgt Naber was a valued member of the 352d Special Operations Aircraft Maintenance Squadron and will be sorely missed. An accident investigation is ongoing, and a memorial service is being planned, details of which will be released at a later point in time. Please keep SSgt Naber’s family and friends in your hearts and prayers as we move through this very difficult time. -- Col Matthew Smith, 352 SOW Commander

The 352d Special Operations Wing and other airpower assets played a huge part of #TrojanFootprint '18: Other Trojan Footprint participants included F-16C Fighting Falcons from the Colorado Air National Guard’s 140th Wing, B-1B Lancers assigned to the 345th Bomb Squadron, the Illinois Air National Guard’s 182nd Air Support Operations Group, and the Washington Air National Guard’s 194th ASOG. “We are focusing on close air support and dynamic targeting with [#SOF elements on the ground] to enhance our lethality,” said U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Marc Garceau, an F-16C pilot and lead planner from the 140th Wing for the exercise. “We are also enhancing our Baltic partnership to our ability as NATO to deter against current and future aggression. The trust and proficiency we’re building with Allied SOF here is critical.” United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) U.S. European Command (EUCOM)

Airmen from the 352 SOW recently deployed to the Baltics alongside other SOCEUR forces to participate in Exercise Trojan Footprint. Check out the video below and keep an eye out for more coverage of this multi-nation SOF exercise.

A big thanks to Justin Webber for submitting these great shots of our CV-22s at the Mach Loop! There are worse ways to spend a day.

On May 18, Lt Col Martin Weeks, previously 67th Special Operations Squadron director of operations, assumed command of the 67th SOS. Lt Col Jake Miller officiated the ceremony where the Air Commandos of the MC-130J Commando II unit congratulated their new leader and said goodbye to outgoing commander, Lt Col Jason Wright. Congratulations Sir!

The 352d Special Operations Wing routinely trains with partner nation militaries to enhance our ability to work cohesively in a combined environment. The 67th Special Operation Squadron's recent exercise with French H225M Caracals is a great example!
