00:01.039 --> 00:04.840
15 years ago , the 628th Air Base wing

00:04.840 --> 00:07.639
was established with a clear mission to

00:07.639 --> 00:09.720
project American power abroad and

00:09.720 --> 00:11.831
deliver superior installation support

00:11.831 --> 00:14.079
at home . Over the past decade and a

00:14.079 --> 00:15.801
half , we've built a legacy of

00:15.801 --> 00:17.801
excellence , shaped by resilience ,

00:18.020 --> 00:20.131
service , and a relentless commitment

00:20.131 --> 00:22.829
to our mission . Our mission has always

00:22.829 --> 00:24.930
been to ensure readiness and enable

00:24.930 --> 00:27.479
success . As the backbone of Joint Base

00:27.479 --> 00:29.590
Charleston , we've supported critical

00:29.590 --> 00:31.959
global operations , fostered innovation ,

00:32.240 --> 00:34.184
and maintained unwavering focus on

00:34.184 --> 00:37.349
delivering superior results . The 628th

00:37.349 --> 00:39.349
Air Base wing has become synonymous

00:39.349 --> 00:43.220
with reliability and excellence . In

00:43.220 --> 00:45.220
these 15 years we face natural

00:45.220 --> 00:48.060
disasters , operational demands , and

00:48.060 --> 00:50.900
global uncertainties . Each challenge

00:50.900 --> 00:53.500
has tested us , but each one has also

00:53.500 --> 00:56.169
made us stronger . Through teamwork ,

00:56.419 --> 00:59.099
innovation , and dedication , we've

00:59.099 --> 01:01.299
proven that no obstacle is too great

01:01.299 --> 01:04.930
for the men and women of the 628 . Our

01:04.930 --> 01:06.652
accomplishments are built on a

01:06.652 --> 01:08.986
foundation of support from our families .

01:09.099 --> 01:11.321
Their sacrifices and encouragement have

01:11.321 --> 01:13.432
been instrumental to everything we've

01:13.432 --> 01:15.919
achieved . They are the quiet strength

01:15.919 --> 01:18.150
behind every mission , reminding us why

01:18.150 --> 01:21.910
we serve and who we serve for . As

01:21.910 --> 01:25.110
we celebrate 15 years of service , we

01:25.110 --> 01:27.221
honor those who have come before us ,

01:27.269 --> 01:29.491
the airmen and families who have shaped

01:29.491 --> 01:31.459
this wing into what it is today .

01:33.180 --> 01:35.124
This is a moment to reflect on our

01:35.124 --> 01:37.459
journey and recognize the legacy of

01:37.459 --> 01:40.139
dedication and excellence that defines

01:40.139 --> 01:43.559
the 628th Air Base wing . But our story

01:43.559 --> 01:45.919
is far from over . As the Department of

01:45.919 --> 01:47.863
Defense's premier power projection

01:47.863 --> 01:50.120
platform , we stand ready to meet the

01:50.120 --> 01:52.239
challenges of tomorrow with the same

01:52.239 --> 01:54.461
resolve that has guided us for the past

01:54.461 --> 01:58.339
15 years . Together we

01:58.339 --> 02:01.309
will build on this legacy . Continuing

02:01.309 --> 02:03.459
to project American power abroad ,

02:03.910 --> 02:06.021
deliver superior installation support

02:06.021 --> 02:08.309
at home , and lead the way into the

02:08.309 --> 02:11.990
future . To every airman , every family
