Selfridge History

ABOUT THE BASE

Selfridge ANGB is hosted by the Michigan Air National Guard’s 127th Wing, a dual Mission Design Series (MDS) unit, which operates and maintains the 9,000-foot-long runway used for Department of Homeland Security operations and active/reserve Department of Defense (DoD) service components training. Selfridge is also home to more than 40 tenant units that form TEAM SELFRIDGE, working together to make the best possible use of training resources and opportunities, unmatched anywhere in the United States.

“Arsenal of Democracy”

Franklin D. Roosevelt Selfridge Air National Guard Base (ANGB) is one of the nation’s busiest, most diverse and most advanced military installations. Located north of Detroit on the shore of Lake Saint Clair, Selfridge ANGB is a Joint Military Community whose major tenants include the Army, Air Force, Marines, Navy, Coast Guard, and Customs & Border Protection.

  A Model for “Jointness”

  • The facility fosters seamless blending of Active Duty, Guard, Reserve, Civilian and Contractor Personnel
  • Over 5,000 military and civilian personnel wok at the installation
