Massachusetts Air National Guard

The Massachusetts Air National Guard (MAANG) is the aerial militia of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, United States of America. It is a reserve of the United States Air Force and, along with the Massachusetts Army National Guard, an element of the Massachusetts National Guard of the larger United States National Guard Bureau.

As commonwealth militia units, the units in the Massachusetts Air National Guard are not in the normal United States Air Force chain of command. They are under the jurisdiction of the governor of Massachusetts through the office of the Massachusetts Adjutant General unless they are federalized when ordered by the president of the United States. The Massachusetts Air National Guard is headquartered on Hanscom Air Force Base, Massachusetts, and its commander is Brigadier General Virginia I. Gaglio.
