Arrival
In addition to base inprocessing, all Airmen must accomplish inprocessing with
their unit before taking permissive leave
for house hunting.
In a continuing effort to reduce the
adverse economic impact permanent
change of station has on military families, dining hall meals are now available
during PCS moves. Military members
may bring their dependents to the Desert Inn dining facility for a period not
to exceed 30 days after arrival at D-M.
Prices are a la carte, and current policy
requires the military sponsor to accompany civilian family members whenever
they use the facility. Call 520-228-5501
for more information.
All members should call the traffic
management flight to arrange delivery of
household goods. Make arrangements by
calling 520-228-4816. Failing to call in a
timely manner may result in household
goods being put into storage.
Another thing to take care of right away
is arrangements with the post office,
Building 2240. Single members living in
the dormitory will get a post office box.
General delivery for mail is assigned for
everyone else until the post office receives
a forwarding address.

plenty of affordable one- and two-bedroom apartments off base.
Normally, Airmen in the grades between E-1 and E-4 are housed
in the dormitories. All dormitory personnel are assigned a private
room, and recent upgrades and renovations have made dorm life
even more pleasant for residents.
BASE HOUSING —
SOARING HEIGHTS COMMUNITIES
Soaring Heights is more than a community that provides sustainable, well-maintained homes and amenities for Air Force families at Davis-Monthan AFB. It is an example of how innovation,
successful long-term planning and forward-thinking community
partnerships can make a meaningful difference in the lives of
Airmen, their families and the communities in which they reside.
Its homes and communities feature pedestrian-friendly streets,
a spacious community center and other amenities focused on
comfort and convenience for Air Force families.
Since its beginning in July 2006, Soaring Heights has evolved
into a spacious community of 1,185 properties that include
legacy, new and renovated homes. Its efficient, friendly services and community amenities are recognized as examples of
excellence that strive to meet and exceed Air Force families’
expectations.
Soaring Heights’ new homes feature five-star Energy Star appliances, technology spaces and covered porches for integrated
indoor/outdoor living. These energy-efficient homes are 20-40
percent larger than many of the homes Airmen and their families have been living in for years and boast a number of features
designed specifically to allow residents to live the lifestyle they
deserve in the place they belong. Soaring Heights’ homes and
neighborhoods are family-friendly and designed with the active
lifestyles of residents in mind.

TUCSON OFF-BASE HOUSING
There are more than 60,000 apartments
in the local area ranging from single-room
studios to lavishly constructed units in
luxurious complexes complete with pools,
fitness centers and tennis courts.
Apartments may be furnished or unfurnished and utility costs may or may not be
included in rental price.
Rental availability is itself seasonal,
with availability falling and rent prices
rising during winter when Tucson’s tourist and student populations are highest.
The median rent on an unfurnished twobedroom apartment is about $600 to $700
per month.
There are single-family homes available
for rent in Tucson. However, the supply
varies throughout the year. Houses generally rent for about $100 more per month
than an apartment with the same number
of rooms. Typically, rentals require a first
and last month’s rent and security deposit
upon moving in.
Although labor costs are low in Tucson,
building material costs are high. As a
result, the median price for a single-family
home is about $240,000. Condominiums,
town houses and “fixer-uppers” may be
significantly less expensive.

Soaring Heights
In addition, Soaring Heights offers educational and family-focused resident programs, premier and innovative safety and
recycling programs, community events
and recreation opportunities that connect
with Soaring Heights’ priorities of environmental, social and economic sustainability.
Soaring Heights is home to the largest
solar-powered community in the continental United States, taking full advantage of its surrounding climate and open
spaces through its combined 6-megawatt, ground-mounted and rooftop solar
arrays.
Today, Soaring Heights is an example
of how partnership and a shared goal of
doing what is best for Air Force families
bear results. And most importantly it’s the
place Davis-Monthan Air Force families
call home.
If you want a quality home and neighborhood in an Air Force community, call
SHC at 520-745-5024 to speak with a

DAVIS-MONTHAN HISTORY
The U.S. Army declared Tucson’s second airfield suitable for
military operations Oct. 6, 1925. The city successfully built the
field in accordance with U.S. Army guidelines. Twenty days later
the field’s flight log received its first entry — a small detachment
serviced transient aircraft bound for California. Many pioneer aviators stopped at the field during its time, including several destined to head the country’s military flying forces. World-famous
aviator Charles Lindbergh dedicated the Tucson landing field
Sept. 27, 1927, for two longtime Tucsonans who died in separate
aerial accidents while serving in the U.S. Army, 2nd Lts. Samuel
H. Davis and Oscar Monthan.
The first building, Hangar 8030, built by the Army at D-M, was
completed March 25, 1932. As a result of the expanding conflict
in Europe, the War Department officially announced a decision to
establish an Army Air Base in Tucson Sept. 29, 1940. However,
it wasn’t until April 1, 1941, that the Army stationed units at D-M.
Paving the way for troops, the Army made Lt. Col. Ames S. Albro
the first base commander Feb. 4, 1941. By late May 1941, the 31st
Air Base Group had begun operations. The base officially became
Davis-Monthan Field on Dec. 1, 1941.
The day after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the field’s
personnel went on 24-hour alert and D-M’s two bombardment
units, the 1st Bombardment Wing and 41st Bombardment Group,
shipped out for the Pacific. However, the base wasn’t idle for long.
In January 1942 jurisdiction of the field transferred from Fourth
Air Force to Second Air Force. The following month the 39th Bombardment Group arrived and immediately began training B-17
Fortress and B-24 Liberator units and crews. Many bombardment units passed through D-M on their way to war. The instructors at D-M taught the men to be bomber crews. The pilots first
learned high-altitude flying, then steady bomb approaches, while
the navigators, radiomen and gunners all practiced their duties.
When they left D-M, each member knew his job, and all worked
together to accomplish their mission. In December 1944, DavisMonthan became home to the B-29 Superfortress until V-J Day
(Victory over Japan) in August 1945.
After the war there were drastic mission changes at D-M. D-M
became one of three 2nd Air Force separation centers. The base
helped process nearly 10,000 returning Soldiers for transition to
civilian life. The field also became a storage location for excess
bombers and cargo aircraft. Tucson’s dry climate and alkali soil
www.dm.af.mil
2nd Lt. Oscar Monthan (Courtesy photo)
made it an ideal location for aircraft storage and preservation, a mission that continues today.
As the Air Force came into its own,
Strategic Air Command took charge of
D-M in March 1946, bringing in several
B-29 bomber groups. After its official creation as a separate service, the Air Force
B-24 (Courtesy photo)
inherited the installation Jan. 13, 1948,
and officially named it Davis-Monthan Air
Force Base. The next year a B-50 aircrew
based at D-M completed the first nonstop
flight around the world (taking 94 hours).
In the 1950s D-M entered the “Jet Age”
when the 303rd Bomb Wing received four
Lockheed T-33 Shooting Stars training
B-24 Turret (Courtesy photo)
www.dm.af.mil jets in February 1953. The early 1960s
brought added strategic missions in the
form of Titan II missiles and U-2 reconnaissance forces. In 1964, another wing
activated at the base and began training
aircrews in the nation’s most sophisticated fighter, the F-4 Phantom. Another
war had developed and D-M was again
training aircrews to accomplish their mission and survive. The base’s U-2s also
flew missions over Southeast Asia.
The 355th Tactical Fighter Wing came
to D-M on July 1, 1971, flying the A-7 Corsairs. This caused the F-4 program to
move to Luke Air Force Base, Arizona. Five
years later, the 355th’s pilots converted to
the A-10A Thunderbolt II aircraft. By the
end of the year the wing took over host
unit responsibilities, reflecting the transfer
of the base from Strategic Air Command
to Tactical Air Command.
The 41st Electronic Combat Squadron
began flying operations at D-M in 1980.
A unit of the Tinker AFB-based 28th Air
Division, the 41st ECS aircrews flew the
specially modified EC-130H aircraft. Their
mission — Compass Call — was intended
to confuse or disrupt enemy command,
control and communications.
History

History
After 10 years of 355th TFW leadership,
the 836th Air Division activated at D-M in
1981 and assumed host base responsibilities. The next year the 602nd Tactical Air
Control Wing joined both the air division
and D-M families. Members of the 602nd
directed forward air forces and coordinated them with ground forces for a combined team effort. They were responsible
for tactical air control forces west of the
Mississippi River. To accomplish their
mission, 602nd air controllers and liaison
officers were stationed on many Air Force
bases and Army posts.
The 868th Tactical Missile Training
Squadron also activated in 1981 and
trained crews on ground-launched cruise
missiles. Then, in 1984, the last Titan missile was taken off alert and an era ended
at D-M. Six years later, as a result of the
U.S.-Soviet intermediate-range nuclear
forces agreement, the Air Force inactivated the 868th TMTS. D-M destroyed the
last U.S. GLCM in May 1991.
Meanwhile, between December 1989
and January 1990, other D-M personnel
participated in Operation Just Cause,
helping to secure and defend Panama’s
main airport. Later in the year D-M
deployed more than 1,300 people in
support of operations Desert Shield and
Storm, the response to Iraq’s invasion of
Kuwait and its subsequent liberation.
In May 1992, the Air Force, in a downsizing move, inactivated the 836th Air Division and once again made the 355th, now
355th TFW F-105 Thunderchief pilots (Courtesy photo)
355th TFW F-105 Thunderchief (Courtesy photo)
simply designated 355th Wing, the host
unit. The service also announced the 12th
Air Force’s move to D-M from Bergstrom
Air Force Base, Texas. A month later D-M
became an Air Combat Command base.
In September 2002, control of the 48th,
55th and the 79th Rescue Squadrons
transferred to the 355th Wing. A year later
the 563rd Rescue Group was activated
and took control of the rescue squadrons
with the 23rd Wing at Moody Air Force
Base, Georgia assuming operational
command of the 563rd RQG.
With only fighter aircraft assigned, the
355th WG was redesignated the 355th
Fighter Wing April 26, 2007.
Other Department of Defense agencies
located at D-M are Headquarters 12th Air
Force (Air Forces Southern), 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration
Group, 162nd Arizona Air National Guard
alert detachment, the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers, Air Force Material Command,
Air Education and Training Command,
and the Air Force Reserve Command.
355TH FIGHTER WING
The legacy and heritage of the 355th
Fighter Wing (FW) began Nov. 12, 1942,
when it was activated as the 355th Fighter
Group (FG) in Orlando Army Air Base, Florida. The 355th FG became fully operational
Sept. 9, 1943, at Steeple Morden, England.
By war’s end, the 355th FG logged more
than 17,000 sorties in P-47s and P-51s
while destroying 862.5 enemy aircraft. The
355th FG inactivated Nov. 20, 1946.
Nearly nine years later, on Aug. 18, 1955,
the 355th FG reactivated at McGheeTyson Airport, Tennessee, operating the
F-86D Sabre Jet under the Air Defense
Command. For two years, the 355th FG
provided fighter defense for the Atomic
Energy Plant, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, the
ALCOA Aluminum Plant, and the Tennessee Valley Authority dams, as well as
the eastern region of the United States,
participating in numerous readiness exercises. The unit inactivated Jan. 8, 1958.
In April 1962, the 355th activated at
George AFB, California, as the 355th
Tactical Fighter Wing (TFW), flying
the Republic F-105 Thunderchief. By
November 1965 the unit had transferred
to Takhli Royal Thai Air Base, Thailand.
Before inactivating on Dec. 10, 1970, the
355 TFW amassed more than 101,300
sorties over North Vietnam, delivered
202,596 tons of bombs and destroyed
12,675 targets. Assigned pilots were also
credited with 22 MiG aerial victories,
eight MiGs destroyed on the ground, and
another nine damaged.

100 percent of this capability to the war.
In 1995, the 355th Wing began supporting Operation Southern Watch with
deployments to Al Jaber AB, Kuwait, to
ensure compliance of the 32rd parallel
southern no-fly zone. The initial deployment in 1995 required 12 A-10s. That
number, however, doubled to 24 for
the 1997 deployment. In 1998 the wing
deployed 16 A-10s while the final deployment in 1999 required 14 A-10s to sustain
operations.
After the attacks of 9/11 and the execution of Operation Enduring Freedom,
eight A-10s from the 355th Wing were
deployed to Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan,
to fly close air support missions reinforcing multinational ground forces. Other
deployments to Bagram Airfield would
follow in 2003, 2005, 2007 and 2012. The
wing also supported six-month Air Expeditionary Force deployments to Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, in 2009 and to
Osan AB, Republic of Korea, in 2011.

History
The 355th TFW reactivated July 1, 1971,
at Davis-Monthan flying the A-7D Corsair II aircraft. In early 1975, the 355th
TFW prepared for conversion to the A-10A
Thunderbolt II, receiving the first four
A-10As in March 1976. In the 1990s, the
355th continued to train A-10 crews for
assignments to units in the United States,
England and Korea. During this period,
the wing deployed airborne forward air
controllers (FAC) in OA-10 aircraft to
Operation Desert Storm, providing nearly

309th Aerospace Maintenance
and Regeneration Group
www.dm.af.mil Mission
The 309th AMARG, or “the bone yard,”
as it’s often called by visitors, is a oneof-a-kind specialized facility within the Air
Force Materiel Command structure. The
group provides critical aerospace maintenance and regeneration capabilities
for joint and allied/coalition warfighters
in support of global operations and agile
combat support for a wide range of military operations.
The 309th AMARG traces its heritage
back to 1946 when the 4105th Army Air
Force Base Unit was established to store
and manage vast numbers of surplus
World War II aircraft. Now, new capabilities define the organization and its future.
A major industrial center occupying
2,600 acres, the AMARG staff manages
an inventory of nearly 4,000 aircraft and
more than 350,000 line items of tooling. In
addition to the historic storage and disposition mission, the center’s highly skilled
workforce regenerates aircraft, returning
them to flying status or preparing them
for overland shipment. The AMARG team
also reclaims hundreds of millions of
dollars worth of parts to support global
warfighting operations.
Although the organization’s primary
customer is the Department of Defense,
additional workloads come from other
national, regional and local government
agencies, as well as foreign allies.
Four product divisions, Aircraft, Commodities, Storage and Disposal, conduct
AMARG’s core industrial operations.
The Aircraft Division performs unparalleled regeneration and specialized aircraft
repair. Currently Aircraft Division activities include participation in the A-10 service life extension and wing modification
programs, F-16 regeneration for the Air
Combat Command’s Full-Scale Aerial Target (FSAT) or drone program, and partnership with the U.S. Navy to regenerate and
deliver P-3 aircraft to various foreign allies
in order to improve allied interoperability.
The Commodities Division removes,
inspects, repairs and delivers aircraft
parts and subassemblies in support of
U.S. and foreign allied contingency and
training efforts. Additionally, innovations
by Commodities Division team members
have saved the government millions of
dollars in costs associated with the A-10
wing modification program.
The Storage Division prepares aircraft
for short- and long-term storage and
maintains them while in storage. These
comprehensive preservation and maintenance practices have safeguarded tens of
billions of dollars in aerospace assets and
made possible the subsequent reactivation of many of these weapon systems.
The Disposal Division administers the
receipt and accountability for all aerospace vehicles located at 309th AMARG
that have been declared excess to weapons systems program requirements.
The 309th AMARG provides a critical capability among AFMC war-winning
organizations. The group will continue to

Exploring Tucson
WELCOME TO TUCSON
Welcome to Tucson, the county seat of Pima County and one of
America’s fastest-growing cities. Tucson is situated on a high valley floor at an elevation of about 2,400 feet. The city is surrounded
by five mountain ranges. To the north is the Santa Catalinas; to the
south are the Santa Ritas and the Sierritas. The Rincon Mountains
are east of Tucson, and the Tucson Mountains are to the west.
The Tucson metropolitan area’s population is approximately
1 million. The city of Tucson covers an area of more than 225 square
miles, while metropolitan Tucson extends for nearly 500 square
miles. The official city of Tucson website is www.tucsonaz.gov.
CLIMATE
Tucson is one of the sunniest cities in the United States. There
are more than 350 days of sunshine each year. Because of the
city’s elevation, temperatures are generally mild.
The average high temperature in July is 99 degrees, with an
average low of 76 degrees. In January the average high temperature is 65 degrees and the average low is 42 degrees. This
sunny climate — along with an average rainfall of only 12 inches
— makes Tucson the ideal place to live for tennis, golf, biking,
hiking or any of the many other recreational activities in the area.
www.dm.af.mil Although Tucson rarely experiences snow, it does have winter.
Temperatures can drop into the 30s on winter mornings, so
Tucsonans sometimes do need winter coats.

The largest single private employer in
Tucson, with more than 10,000 employees, is Raytheon Missile Systems. The
University of Arizona, with about 10,800
workers, is the top public employer in the
region. Other major employers include
the state of Arizona, Wal-Mart, the Tucson Unified School District and Pima

factors, and it contributes lavishly to the
Tucson economy. Direct travel spending

$2.6 billion.

of its economic base.

EMISSIONS LAW
If you own a vehicle, you must comply with Arizona’s emissions law. If you
are registering a vehicle for the first time
in Arizona, an emissions test may be
required. If an emissions test is required,
take your vehicle and its out-of-state
registration or temporary registration
form to an official inspection center
before applying for registration. For
more information on Arizona emissions
testing requirements, visit the Arizona
Department of Environmental Quality at
www.myazcar.com.
For Arizona registration renewals,
check your registration notice to see if
your vehicle requires an emissions test. If
it doesn’t, no emissions test is required
unless the vehicle is used to commute into
the testing area for employment or school.
For questions or more information, call
602-255-0072 or visit www.azdot.gov.
AUTO INSURANCE
You must have auto insurance to drive
in Arizona. When you register your vehicle, you must submit an insurance identification card, issued by your insurance
company, along with your registration
application renewal. If you change insurance companies, you must submit an
insurance identification card to the Motor
Vehicle Division from the new company
within 30 days. You must carry proof of
insurance in your vehicle at all times. If you
fail to maintain insurance on your vehicle
and your registration is suspended, you
must pay applicable reinstatement fees
and file proof of future financial responsibility. The minimum financial responsibility
amounts are $15,000/$30,000 for death
or bodily injury and $10,000 for property
damage. Get more information from the
Arizona Department of Transportation at

Arizona State Flag:
The 13 rays of red and gold on the top half of the flag
represent both the 13 original colonies of the Union, and
the rays of the Western setting sun. Red and gold were
also the colors carried by Coronado’s Spanish expedition
in search of the Seven Cities of Cibola in 1540. The bottom
half of the flag has the same Liberty blue as the United
States flag. Since Arizona was the largest producer of
copper in the nation, a copper star was placed in the
flag’s center. The flag was adopted in 1917.
