513th ACG reveals new facility

Col. Laurie Dickson, 513th Air Control Group commander, relates the six-year challenge of building the new 513th ACG headquarters facility and how numerous base organizations came together to make it a reality during a ribbon-cutting ceremony Sept. 7, 2018, at Tinker Air Force Base, Okla. The 513th Air Control Group is the only Air Force Reserve unit to fly and maintain the E-3 Sentry, an Airborne Warning and Control System aircraft that provides surveillance, warning and tactical control of U.S. and allied military aircraft. As a Reserve associate unit, Airmen assigned to the 513th ACG work hand-in-hand with the active-duty 552nd Air Control Wing, which is responsible for the E-3 Sentry aircraft assigned to Tinker Air Force Base. Working together, Tinker AFB's Team AWACS maintains a reliable presence in numerous missions worldwide. (Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Grady Epperly)
