Find the right organization
Assignments & visits.
Match the assignment or appointment to the responsible organization. Confirm reporting, access and household-support eligibility with the sponsor or host.
Contact the right squadron before arrival
Use the wing’s unit directory to identify the receiving organization. Ask its personnel staff for reporting and in-processing instructions rather than treating a public-affairs contact as a newcomer desk.
156th Wing units and officesStart family questions with Military and Family Readiness
The wing’s Resiliency Center lists Military and Family Readiness alongside other support functions. Request the appropriate appointment or referral before planning a visit around a particular service.
156th Wing Resiliency CenterDistinguish medical readiness from household treatment
A listed medical unit does not establish a full-service family hospital. Ask the unit which appointments relate to military readiness and how your household should arrange ongoing care.
156th Wing units and officesUse the support directory for the actual need
Consult the Resiliency Center for the relevant support role and current contact. Confirm availability directly; the directory is a starting point rather than a promise of a walk-in appointment.
