McGuire Air Force Base, located near Wrightstown in Burlington County, New Jersey, is one of the most significant military air installations in the United States. It serves as a major hub for the Air Mobility Command, supporting airlift and aerial refueling missions globally. In 2009, McGuire AFB was officially co-located with Fort Dix and Naval Air Engineering Station Lakehurst to form Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JB MDL), the only tri-service joint base in the U.S. Department of Defense. The base hosts the 87th Air Base Wing and the 305th Air Mobility Wing. The IATA code WRI and ICAO code KWRI reflect its continued identification as a distinct airfield. The base handles military cargo, personnel airlift, and occasional civilian charter operations, and has historically been a key staging point for overseas deployments and humanitarian missions.
