The Abilene Trophy is awarded annually to the community in Air Mobility Command that is most supportive of its local Air Force Base.

This article includes a list of references, related reading, or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (September 2018)

Formally known as the Air Mobility Command Community Support Award, it has been awarded since its establishment in 1998. The award's sponsor is the Abilene, Texas Chamber of Commerce. (Abilene is home to Dyess Air Force Base, which has an AMC contingent, the 317th Airlift Group; however, the host unit for Dyess AFB, the 7th Bomb Wing, is under the Air Force Global Strike Command, and thus Dyess AFB and its host community of Abilene would not be eligible for an award sponsored by its host city.)
