New Organization Will Provide Local Command For Aviation Units
Fort Wainwright, located in Fairbanks, Alaska, is home to two aviation regiments. This includes the 25th, which flies the AH-64 Apache attack helicopter, and the 52nd, which flies the CH-47 Chinook cargo helicopter. Recently, the Army’s 11th Airborne Division shared that they will be activating a new Arctic Aviation Command to facilitate improved communication between these units and upper leadership.
