308 TFS

The 308th Tactical Fighter Squadron (308 TFS) was originally activated during World War II as part of the United States Army Air Forces, participating in combat operations in the European Theater. Reactivated during the Cold War, the squadron became part of the U.S. Air Force and was assigned to various bases in the United States and overseas, flying aircraft such as the F-100 Super Sabre and later the F-4 Phantom II. During the Vietnam War, the 308 TFS was deployed to Southeast Asia, where it carried out numerous combat missions, including close air support and interdiction operations. The squadron was eventually inactivated in the post-Vietnam era as part of a broader reorganization of tactical air units.
