The 405th Combat Support Group was an essential unit of the United States Air Force, originally activated in the mid-20th century. It provided critical base operations and logistical support for flying and combat operations, particularly for the 405th Fighter Wing. The group was stationed at Clark Air Base in the Philippines during the height of the Cold War, playing a key role in maintaining operational readiness in the Pacific theater. Throughout its service, the 405th Combat Support Group contributed significantly to the effectiveness and sustainability of U.S. Air Force missions in Southeast Asia before its inactivation.
