Can anyone tell me if there is an air force base in columbus, ohio?
The only real Air Force base left in Ohio is Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton. There might be a few Air National Guard Armories around. Well you if you want to live in Columbus you might want to check with the housing officer and your commanding officer to see if they have any problem with it. As long as it does not interfere with your job preformance, and you can get to and from the base without any issues they might not have a problem. But every base is different. So the best advice I can give is like I said, just check with the housing officer and your commanding officer.
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, U.S. military installation, 8,023 acres (3,247 hectares), W Ohio, NE of Dayton; est. 1917. One of the largest airport installations in the world, it is the air force’s main research and development base, and the headquarters of the Air Force Logistics Command (national center for defense activities). The Aerospace Medical Laboratory and the Air Force Museum are also on the base. There is a Youngstown Air Reserve Station. There is a National Guard station in Cinncinati.

The size and jobs on that base are listed on the website. There was one in Heath, OH called Newark but was closed in 1996. http://www.cr.nps.gov/nagpra/DOCUMENTS/B… This website is a US map of military installations in case there may be one in close proximity but in another state you may want to consider. Good luck!
Not exactly. What you have is the Ohio Air Natinal Guard there at Rickenbaker. The 121st Air Refueling Wing, the 164th Weather, and the HQ of the Ohio Air National Guard. If you are looking to join the regular USAF, then you are barking up the wrong tree. You can tell them where you would LIKE to be stationed, but they are going to send you where they need you. If you want to be in Columus, and be in the USAF, then you will need to check into joining the Ohio Air National Guard.
