(From left to right) The 104th Fighter Wing Base Commander stands at attention with the incoming and outgoing Mission Support Group Commanders during the Change of Command ceremonies MSG and Maintenance Group at Barnes Air National Guard Base in Westfield, Mass., April 12, 2026. Held back-to-back, the ceremonies marked a transition of leadership for the 104th Mission Support and Maintenance Groups. The 104th Fighter Wing's Executive Officer narrated the ceremonies, and the 104FW Chaplains led a joint invocation. The Mission Support Group welcomed new leadership as its former commander immediately took command of the Maintenance Group following the initial ceremony. Highlighting an intentional exchange between the two organizations, the transitions ensured continuity of leadership, focus on mission, and operational readiness for the wing.
