Sometimes just "the wing building" or "wing" Like I have to go over to wing. Not usually headquarters. Of course then there's the black hole, zoo, etc.

"Wing Headquarters" If there are a couple of wings on base you're on your own, I don't know off hand.

"Puzzle Palace?"

Ummm...CBPO was the personnel office, not headquarters. I do remember that folks reffered to CBPO appointment as a "Commissary B-x, Post Office" run! But yes, "Wing" is what I most commonly hear the Headquarters building being reffered as.

Well at Langley it was either 1st Fighter Wing Headquarters or ACC Headquarters. Usually in conversation it would be said either 'going up to the Wing' or 'going up to ACC headquarters' or for the old timers on base...going over to 205....
