High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Seymour Johnson Air Force Base is a United States Air Force base located within the city limits of Goldsboro, North Carolina. The base is named for Navy test pilot Seymour Johnson, a native of Goldsboro. It is home to the 4th Fighter Wing (4 FW) of the Air Combat Command (ACC) and the 916th Air Refueling Wing (916 ARW), an Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) unit operationally gained by the Air Mobility Command (AMC). The 4th Fighter Wing, one of the Air Force's most distinguished fighter wings, moved to Seymour Johnson on December 8, 1957 from Chitose AB, Japan, replacing the 83d Fighter-Day Wing, and has been the host unit ever since. The 4th Fighter Wing, under various designations, can trace its origins to the RAF Eagle squadrons of World War II. The Eagle Squadrons were Royal Air Force fighter squadrons formed with volunteer pilots from the United States. The last Eagle Squadron was disbanded in September 1942, with most of the members transferring into the United States Army Air Force, primarily the 4th Fighter Group of the U.S. Eighth Air Force. Many famous fighter aces were in this group.
