History

Established as the Domestic Division, Air Corps Transport Command in the early days of World War II, the organization's mission was the transport of newly-produced aircraft from points within the United States to Ports of Embarkation for shipment to Britain and our other overseas Allies. In 1946, the organization was transferred to Air Transport Command and became, in essence, a military airline its Continental Division, managing transport routes within the United States.

When the USAF was created as a separate service in 1947, Military Air Transport Service was established to support the new Department of Defense, with responsibility for its support falling to the Department of the Air Force. Redesignated Western Transport Air Force (WESTAF), the organization managed all MATS operations from the Mississippi River west to the east coast of Africa until MATS was replaced by the Military Airlift Command in 1966. When MATS became MAC, WESTAF was redesignated 22d AF, with headquarters at Travis AFB, CA.

During the 1960s, Twenty-Second Air Force transports flew missions worldwide, supporting the efforts of the United States in Southeast Asia, Europe and other places around the world. In December 1974, the Twenty-Second Air Force absorbed Tactical Air Command

The unit was relieved from assignment to Military Airlift Command and assigned to Air Mobility Command on 1 June 1992.

It is under the peacetime command of Headquarters Air Force Reserve Command at Robins Air Force Base, GA.
