606 AC&W Sqdn

**606 Aircraft Control & Warning Squadron (606 AC&W Sqdn)** was a unit of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) established during the early years of the Cold War. Activated in the early 1950s, its primary mission was to provide radar surveillance and airspace control as part of North American air defense, particularly within the Pinetree Line network. The squadron operated radar stations to detect and track potential Soviet bomber incursions, relaying critical information to interceptor aircraft and command centers. Disbanded in the 1960s as technology advanced and air defense strategies evolved, the 606 AC&W Squadron played a vital role in continental defense during its operational years.
