608 CAMS

The 608th Component Aircraft Maintenance Squadron (608 CAMS) was a United States Air Force unit responsible for the maintenance and readiness of aircraft components, primarily supporting the operations of larger wings such as the 2nd Bomb Wing at Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana. Activated during the Cold War era, the squadron played a crucial role in ensuring the operational capability of B-52 Stratofortress bombers and related equipment. Throughout its service, 608 CAMS maintained a reputation for technical excellence and contributed significantly to the strategic deterrence mission of the United States. The squadron was eventually inactivated or reorganized as part of Air Force restructuring in the 1990s.
