177th Fighter Wing Public Affairs

Mission Statement:
The mission of the PA/VI office is to tell the Air Force and New Jersey Air National Guard story, build public trust and support and enhance Airmen morale and readiness.

Media Queries:
All media contacts should be immediately referred to the 177th FW/PA Office or Community Manager. It is the responsibility of the Public Affairs Office to coordinate all media interviews, media queries and media access to the base.

Please direct all media calls to (609) 761-6259 during normal duty hours. If you have an urgent media query after normal duty hours, contact the command post at (609) 761-6001 and ask to have the Wing Public Affairs Officer or Community Manager return your call.

Community Relations:
The objective of community relations is to increase public awareness and understanding of the Air Force and the New Jersey ANG's mission. We support surrounding communities in all aspects, ranging from tour requests, ESGR flights, to providing speakers for outside events. Our goal is to foster positive relations with the surrounding communities. Participation in community events by Air Force people is desirable and highly encouraged. The Community Relations Manager can be reached at (609) 761-6259.

Base Tours:
Groups interested in base tours need to fill out a 177th Fighter Wing Base Tour Request Form.
