Marine Corps Air Station Miramar Adds W.A.R.N.

The communications department of Marine Corps Air Station Miramar (CA) has contracted with W.A.R.N. to provide notification services base-wide. MCAS Miramar is home to the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing Headquarters as well as Marine Aircraft Groups 11 and 16. These units comprise many different fixed wing and rotor wing aircraft including the F/A-18 Hornet, KC-130J Hercules, CH-46 Sea Knight, CH-53 Sea Stallion as well as station UC-35 Citations. The base is also home to Marine Wing Support Group 37, Marine Air Control Group 38 and the 3rd MAW Band among other units.

“The new W.A.R.N. capability is a force multiplier for the 6 shop” said W.A.R.N. Military Director and former Marine Josh Evans. “They will be able to do in seconds what used to take many hours, with faster results and reporting. We look forward to a long relationship of service.”
