What makes today's RAF Mildenhall different from other U.S. Air Force bases is the diversity of the units assigned here.
With units from four different major commands -- Air Combat Command, Air Force Special Operations Command,
 Air Mobility Command and U.S. Air Forces in Europe -- we have a wide variety of missions occurring simultaneously.
This unique relationship requires constant coordination and teamwork.
Because of this, we refer to ourselves as "Team Mildenhall."
