JB McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst 514th OG Art vintage style military aviation travel poster by – Squadron Posters!
The 514th Operations Group is a United States Air Force Reserve unit, assigned to the 514th Air Mobility Wing. It is stationed at Joint Base McGuire – Dix – Lakehurst, New Jersey. The 514 Operations Group oversees the 514 AMOS, 514 OSS, 514 AES and the 732 nd Airlift Squadron. All in support of the C – 17 Globemaster. The first predecessor of the group was the 4th Combat Cargo Group, which served in the China – Burma – India Theater during World War II. Its second predecessor was first activated in the reserve in 1947 as the 514th Troop Carrier Group. The group was called to active duty for the Korean War and served in the United States as a training unit for Curtiss C – 46 Commando Aircraft. After the war, it returned to the reserve, serving until 1959, when it was inactivated as the reserves reorganized under the dual deputy concept. The group was again activated in 1992 under the United States Air Force’s Objective Wing reorganization. The two groups were consolidated in 2001.
The C-17 Globemaster III is a large military transport aircraft. It was developed for the United States Air Force (USAF) from the 1980s to the early 1990s by McDonnell Douglas. The C-17 carries forward the name of two previous piston-engined military cargo aircraft, the Douglas C-74 Globemaster and the Douglas C-124 Globemaster II. The C-17 commonly performs strategic airlift missions, transporting troops and cargo throughout the world; additional roles include tactical airlift, medical evacuation and airdrop duties.
