42 CES SAC FIREPROTECTION

The 42nd Civil Engineering Squadron (CES) Fire Protection Flight, often referred to as "SAC Fire Protection," traces its origins to its critical role under Strategic Air Command (SAC) at Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama. Established during the Cold War, the unit was tasked with providing rapid and effective fire response to safeguard key personnel, aircraft, and nuclear assets vital to national security. Over the decades, 42 CES Fire Protection has evolved, incorporating advanced firefighting technology and rigorous training to respond to both structural and aircraft emergencies. Today, the unit continues its legacy of excellence, supporting the mission of the 42nd Air Base Wing and ensuring the safety of Maxwell-Gunter's personnel and resources.
