483rd Combat Support Group

The 483rd Combat Support Group was originally activated as part of the United States Air Force, supporting operations during the early Cold War era. It traces its lineage to the 483rd Bombardment Group, which served in World War II before being re-designated for new missions in the postwar period. Stationed at various bases, including in the Pacific theater, the unit provided essential support services—such as logistics, maintenance, and base operations—to flying and combat units. The 483rd Combat Support Group played a critical role in sustaining air operations, particularly during the Vietnam War, before its eventual inactivation as part of broader USAF organizational changes.
