The United States Air Force's 194th Wing is a unit located at Camp Murray, Washington. The Mission of the 194th Wing is "both kinetic and non-kinetic operations and include sensitive missions that reside in the cyber domain."[1]

The wing was activated on 30 August 2006. The original commander was then Colonel John S. Tuohy, and he commanded the wing from the activation of the unit until 30 October 2008.[2]

Emblem

Ultramarine blue and Air force yellow are the Air Force colors. Blue alludes to the sky, the primary theater of Air Force operations. Yellow refers to the sun and the excellence required of Air Force personnel. The Phoenix represents the rebirth and change; the constant flexibility needed in an ever-changing Air Force, as well as the diversity of missions within the wing. The Phoenix is rising out of the globe, which represents the unit’s worldwide mission. The Phoenix and globe sit on a field of black, representing cyberspace, the unit’s final theater of operations.
