1400 MAS

The 1400th Military Airlift Squadron (1400 MAS) was a unit of the United States Air Force that operated during the mid-20th century. Activated in 1948, it was initially part of the Military Air Transport Service (MATS), providing important airlift capabilities for personnel, equipment, and cargo. The squadron played a key role in supporting global U.S. military operations, including logistical missions during the Berlin Airlift and throughout the Cold War. The 1400 MAS was eventually inactivated as part of a broader Air Force reorganization, but it remains noted for its contributions to strategic air mobility.
