131st Fighter Wing

Missouri Air National Guard

Lindbergh's Own

Although the 131st Fighter Wing ramp at Lambert Field/St. Louis International Airport is now empty, for many years, it was home to perhaps the most experienced F-15 fighter squadron in the world. With BRAC, the 131st Fighter Wing became the 131st Bomb Wing and merged with the active duty at Whiteman AFB, Missouri, flying the B-2. I'm sure the squadron will excel in the new mission, just as they did in the Eagle. Most of the 131st's Eagles were passed along to the Montana ANG in Great Falls, and some have now since been retired to the 309th AMARG at Davis-Monthan AFB, Arizona.
