The Commemorative Air Force Minnesota Wing was formed in 1971. The Minnesota Wing was the very first charter unit of the national headquarters wing of the Commemorative Air Force and operated as a maintenance support arm to help the CAF’s mission and its ever growing fleet of rare aircraft.

The Commemorative Air Force (CAF) is dedicated to flying and restoring World War II aircraft. The Commemorative Air Force® (CAF) was founded to preserve history by restoring historic World War II aircraft back to flying condition and to educate new generations of Americans on the value of military aviation in assuring our nation’s freedom. These airplanes, and the men and women who built, flew and maintained them – changed the world forever! We can never let them be forgotten.

More than just a collection of airworthy warplanes, the organization has more than 11,000 members and has a fleet of more than 175 World War II aircraft, known as the CAF Ghost Squadron®, recreate, remind and reinforce the lessons learned from a defining moment in American history.
