12th SPS

The 12th Security Police Squadron (12th SPS) was an Air Force unit responsible for base security, law enforcement, and force protection, primarily at Bergstrom Air Force Base, Texas. Activated during the Cold War era, the squadron safeguarded vital assets, including aircraft and personnel, while supporting strategic air operations. Members of the 12th SPS participated in various training exercises and real-world contingencies to maintain a constant state of readiness. The unit was eventually inactivated following the closure of Bergstrom AFB in the early 1990s, as part of broader post-Cold War drawdowns.
