57th Security Police Squadron

The 57th Security Police Squadron was a unit of the United States Air Force primarily based at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada. Activated during the Cold War era, the squadron was tasked with providing security and law enforcement for the installation, including protection of personnel, aircraft, and sensitive resources. The unit played a key role in supporting the operations of the 57th Wing, particularly during major exercises and the daily activities associated with the USAF Weapons School and Red Flag exercises. The 57th Security Police Squadron was later redesignated as the 57th Security Forces Squadron, continuing its legacy of base defense and force protection into the modern era.
