Drive, integrity, problem solving, physical fitness, stress tolerance, teamwork, trainability, and communication.

Competency first. Ego last.

Mission success starts with great mission planning.

Here, we practice how we play.

[Special Warfare Training Wing @AFSWTW]

No such thing as over prepared.

[Special Warfare Training Wing @AFSWTW]

There’s a reason we train under load, in the heat, against the clock. The enemy won’t wait until you’re ready.

At the SWTW, we push your limits because one day those limits could decide who makes it home.

#AFSPECWAR

[Special Warfare Training Wing @AFSWTW]

We train as one team and we fight as one team. Check on your teammates. Lean on each other. No one fights alone. This Suicide Prevention Month remember, your Wingman has your back in training and in life.

End of the week? Not here.

We build warfighters 7 days a week.

The enemy doesn’t care about weekends.
