12 Air Force (U.S. Army) Accent Coffee Mug

The "12 Air Force (U.S. Army)" is a designation that may cause some confusion due to an inconsistency in its naming, as it belongs to the U.S. Air Force rather than the U.S. Army. This air force command is one of eight major Unified Combatant Commands under the Department of Defense and is headquartered at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia. Its area of responsibility includes the eastern United States, with a mission to provide and coordinate air and space power for the defense of North America. Notable subordinate units include Air Force Special Operations Command, Air Combat Command, and Air Mobility Command. Despite its name, this command operates as part of the U.S. Air Force, not the Army.
