Emergency services

Training for all Emergency Services functions is based on the Incident Command System. The most basic qualifications require certification in the ICS-100 course available online.

Members of the wing assisted in the search for John F. Kennedy, Jr.'s plane crash site.[1] More recently, a few Massachusetts Wing members aided with Incident Command at the Gulf Oil Spill Disaster.[2]

In April 2020, members of the Massachusetts Wing began assisting the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) in its response to the COVID-19 pandemic by helping to load and unload trucks, inventorying personal protective equipment and other needed medical supplies, and assembling orders of those items for delivery to local municipalities around the state.[3]

Aerospace Education

Aerospace Education includes a monthly aerospace education class, up to 7 Orientation Flights for Cadets under 18, and a display competition based on the STEM principles which is judged at the annual Conference.

Cadet Program

The Cadet Program culminates each summer in an encampment. In recent years, encampments have been held at Joint Base Cape Cod, normally in the month of August.

Massachusetts Wing has credit for 18 Spaatz-earning Cadets.

Squadrons

At one time, Massachusetts Wing oversaw approximately 25 primary subordinate squadrons under 4 groups located throughout the state, however the groups were eliminated when the number of squadrons dwindled below the 20 required to justify their existence. To date, there are currently 12 Active Squadrons in the Massachusetts Wing.

Members of the Massachusetts Wing are "apprehended" by Security Forces Airmen of the Massachusetts Air National Guard during an intercept training mission.
