Welcome Visitors!
Welcome to the United States Air Force Military Auxiliary Radio System (MARS), 5th AFMARS Communications Wing Website. We are striving each day to continue the mission and legacy of the USAF MARS program. The 5th AFMARS Communications Wing comprises operations in the states of IL, IN, MN, MI, OH and WI. Each state, in turn, is run by a State MARS Group Commander and their staff.
The MARS program consists of licensed amateur radio operators who are interested in military communications. They contribute to the MARS mission by providing auxiliary or emergency communications on a local, national, and international basis as an adjunct to normal communications.
MARS utilizes many facets of radio communications including traditional SSB voice and digital communications, some of which are not allowed to ordinary amateur radio operators on HF frequencies outside of the normal ham bands. If you like what you see and desire to be part of this exciting, patriotic effort, I urge you to review the affiliate membership qualifications and fill out our application.
Please feel free to browse this site to learn more about USAF MARS, our people, our mission and our support of the Department of Defense. If you desire further information, not found here, please email me. This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
