3550th Air Police Squadron Moody Air Force Base

The 3550th Air Police Squadron was an essential security and law enforcement unit assigned to Moody Air Force Base, Georgia, during the Cold War era. Activated in the early 1950s, the squadron provided base security, protected vital Air Force assets, and maintained discipline among personnel at the home of the 3550th Flying Training Wing. Members of the squadron were responsible for patrolling the installation, manning entry control points, and responding to emergencies or security incidents. The 3550th Air Police Squadron was eventually redesignated as part of the Air Force’s evolving security and law enforcement structure, reflecting broader changes within the Security Police career field.
