37 security police squadon

The 37th Security Police Squadron was an integral part of the United States Air Force, originally activated to provide security and law enforcement duties at various Air Force installations. The squadron notably served at Phu Cat Air Base, South Vietnam, during the Vietnam War, where its personnel protected vital resources and facilities against enemy attacks from 1967 to 1971. Members of the 37th Security Police Squadron conducted base defense operations, perimeter patrols, and quick reaction force missions, often under challenging and dangerous conditions. After the Vietnam War, the squadron continued its security mission until its inactivation as part of post-war force reductions.
