Pretty much one wing one base.

There are some smaller units that may be at other locations, and assigned to
a wing somewhere else and some bases, such as Eglin have more than one Wing,
but it is pretty much one for one. Groups have gone to the smallish size as
in Combat Support Group, Ops Group, etc. Part of the wing base structure.

Oh my, how things have changed.

No more base CC, "One Wing, One Boss" is the mantra of the modern Air

Force.

Unless USAF has seriously changed the structure of a wing since I
retired in '84, there is both a Base Commander and his boss, the Wing
King.
