==Units== [[File:MarchTower.JPG|thumb|The [[control tower]] at March (demolished in 2015)]] On 1 January 1994, the 722d Air Refueling Wing was activated at then-March AFB to replace the [[22d Air Refueling Wing]], which was moving to McConnell AFB, KS, w/o/p/e.<ref name="auto">{{Cite web|url=http://airforcehistoryindex.org/|title=Air Force History Index|website=airforcehistoryindex.org}}</ref> The wing was inactivated On 1 April 1996,<ref name="auto"/> and base responsibilities transferred to Air Force Reserve [[452d Air Mobility Wing]] (452 AMW). Today the host unit at March remains the 452 AMW, which in addition to its operational flying mission, also provides host base support for numerous tenant units. March JARB is also the home to Headquarters, [[Fourth Air Force]] (4 AF) of the Air Force Reserve Command and multiple units of the California [[Air National Guard]]. * [[452d Air Mobility Wing]] ** [[452d Operations Group]] *** [[336th Air Refueling Squadron]] *** [[729th Airlift Squadron]] *** 452d Operations Support Squadron *** [[912th Air Refueling Squadron]] (Active Duty "Associate" Squadron) ** 452d Maintenance Group ** 452d Mission Support Group ** 452d Medical Group ** [[1st Combat Camera Squadron]] Operating Location Charlie (established late 2017) ===Tenant units=== * [[Fourth Air Force]] * [[163d Attack Wing]], [[California Air National Guard]] * [[144th Fighter Wing]] Detachment 1, [[California Air National Guard]] * 701st Combat Operations Squadron, 610th Air Operations Group, [[Tenth Air Force]] * 362d Air Force Recruiting Squadron, 372d Recruiting Group, [[Air Force Recruiting Service]] * [[American Forces Network|AFN]] Broadcast Center/Defense Media Center * Defense Visual Information Center, [[Defense Media Activity]] * 653d Area Support Group, * [[304th Sustainment Brigade]] * 358th Civil Affairs Brigade, 351st Civil Affairs Command, [[United States Army Civil Affairs and Psychological Operations Command]] * [[United States Navy Reserve|Naval]] and [[United States Marine Corps Reserve|Marine Corps]] Reserve Center * Air and Marine Operations Center, [[CBP Air and Marine Operations]][[United States Army Reserve|Army Reserve]] Center[[File:March Air Force Base photo D Ramey Logan.jpg|thumb|An aerial view of March ARB in 2015]] * [[Civil Air Patrol]], California Wing, Inland Empire Group III, 45th Composite Squadron * [[Defense Commissary Agency]] * [[Army & Air Force Exchange Service]] * March Joint Powers Authority Since 1995, March ARB has hosted alert site operations of the [[California Air National Guard]]'s [[144th Fighter Wing]] (144 FW), which is also operationally-gained by Air Combat Command. Prior to 2013, the 144 FW stationed [[F-16 Fighting Falcon]] aircraft, initially consisting of F-16C/D Block 25, then F-16C/D Block 32, on alert at March. Following the wing's transition to the [[F-15 Eagle]], the 144 FW now stations contracted South Dakota ANG (114th FW) F-16C Block 30s at this operating location in support of [[USNORTHCOM]] and [[NORAD]]. Civilian agency flight activities include a permanently based [[U.S. Customs and Border Protection]] Air Unit, as well as a [[California Department of Forestry]] air unit that uses the base on an intermittent basis. Dragon Flight is a civilian formation flight demonstration team, based at March, sponsored by the March Field Aero Club. The team uses the [[T-34 Mentor]], making numerous appearances throughout the southwest United States each year.
