3345 Technical Training Group

The 3345th Technical Training Group was an Air Force unit established during the Cold War era, primarily stationed at Chanute Air Force Base, Illinois. Its core mission was to provide specialized technical training for airmen in aircraft maintenance, electronics, and various support specialties crucial to Air Force operations. Throughout its active years, the group played a vital role in preparing thousands of personnel to maintain and support a wide range of Air Force weapon systems and equipment. The unit was eventually inactivated in the early 1990s as part of broader post-Cold War realignment and the closure of Chanute AFB.
