DavisâMonthan Air Force Base (DM AFB) (IATA: DMA, ICAO: KDMA, FAA LID: DMA) is a United States Air Force base located within the city limits approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) south-southeast of downtown Tucson, Arizona. It was established in 1925 as Davis-Monthan Landing Field.
For San Antonio, the commission recommended joint basing for the three major installations around the city; Fort Sam Houston, Lackland AFB and Randolph AFB. On Aug. 1, 2009, the Air Force activated the 502d ABW to perform the vital joint base support mission. Because of its central location in San Antonio and Bexar County, Texas, the Air Force activated the wing at JBSA-Fort Sam Houston.
