MISSION - The United States Air Force Military Auxiliary Radio System provides contingency communications support on behalf of the men and women of the Department of Defense and other U.S. Government users in support of their important and diverse national security missions whenever, however and wherever required.

VISION - To support the Department of Defense and U.S. Government as tasked and within our capability by providing first-rate, on-demand contingency communications services that rival far more complex and expensive systems levels of service and quality, and to do so in peacetime or times of national crisis, on an around-the-clock basis, and at no expense to the US taxpayer. Members will use their own resources and contributed time to provide these services.

VALUES – We view our Air Force MARS service as a patriotic duty. We employ our God given talents and resources to meet our operational commitment. At all times we strive to provide communications encompassing the finest traditions of the United States Military and fully embrace the Air Force Core Values of Integrity First, Service Before Self and Excellence in All We Do.
