Summary[edit]
Emblem of the 42d Air Base Wing of the United States Air Force. Approved on 11 March 1942 as the emblem of the 42nd Bombardment Group. It became the emblem of the 42nd Bombardment Wing effective 16 April 1954. Motto: Aethera Nobis--The Skies for Us
Blazon[edit]
Azure, on a bend engrailed or, four annulets gules, between two aerial bombs palewise of the second, all within a diminutive border of the last.
Significance[edit]
The overall design symbolizes the wing’s mission of supporting Air University and its vital Air Force-wide education mission. The four annulets represent the primary support functions provided by the wing--personnel, facilities, supplies, and air and ground transportation. The two bombs are indicative of the wing’s ultimate goal--air power through the total support of Air University’s mission to educate and train tomorrow’s Air Force leaders. Blue symbolizes the need for knowledge. Yellow signifies the light of intellect, and red depicts the strength, passion, and zeal with which the wing carries out its mission.
