Air Force Reserve Command

Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) is a part of the U.S. Air Force composed of trained reservists who support national defense. It provides personnel, aircraft, and resources that can be called upon during emergencies, conflicts, or peacetime missions. Reservists often balance civilian careers with military service, enabling the Air Force to maintain readiness without maintaining all resources full-time. AFRC plays a vital role in expanding the Air Force’s capabilities, ensuring rapid response and operational flexibility through trained reserve members and aircraft on standby.
