16th Transportation Squadron

The **16th Transportation Squadron** was an Air Force logistics unit established to provide essential ground transportation and vehicle management support. Activated in the early years of the Cold War, the squadron played a key role in ensuring the movement of personnel, equipment, and supplies at various U.S. Air Force bases both in the continental United States and overseas. Over its period of service, the 16th Transportation Squadron supported a wide range of operations, including routine base logistics and contingency missions during periods of heightened military activity. The unit was eventually inactivated or redesignated as part of broader Air Force organizational changes in the late 20th century.
