727th Air Mobility Squadron [727th AMS]
The 727th Air Mobility Squadron is a unit of the 721st Air mobility Operations Group, based at Ramstein AB, Germany.
The 727th AMS is part of AMC's en route system that provides fixed and deployed maintenance, aerial port and command and control support to deployed command forces across the globe. The squadron has all the necessary support, like fleet service, maintenance and passenger service to allow aircraft and crews to quickly depart for their next destination or stay overnight for crew rest.
The squadron was redesignated as the 727th AMS on March 15, 2001. Prior to that, it was designated as the 627th Air Mobility Support Squadron assigned to the 621st Air Mobility Support Group. The change in designation was undertaken to better reflect the operations nature of the group's overall mission as an operational rather than support one.
