Social Media
Social media is a valuable tool for telling our Airmen's stories, and for staying connected with family and friends. However, social media can also present operation security (OPSEC) risks and challenges. Be mindful that due to Creech's sensitive mission, specifics about Creech AFB assignments, and any installation activities should not be posted on social media. The Creech Public Affairs Office is available to answer any social media questions, concerns, or provide clarification; you can reach the Public Affairs Office at 702-404-1618.

Defense Service Network Dialing Instructions
The DSN is the provider of long-distance communications service for the Department of Defense. Every installation has a special DSN number and the numbers vary by world-wide location. In order to place a call using DSN, the caller must be using a military phone on an installation. Cell phones cannot dial DSN numbers. When dialing a DSN number from a United States installation to another United States installation, it is unnecessary to dial the DSN 312 area code. When dialing a DSN number to/from overseas locations, the DSN area code must be included. The commercial telephone number for Creech AFB operator is 702-652-1110 (Nellis/Creech joint operator); however, for most Creech offices their telephone prefix is 702-404-XXXX.
