64th FMS

The 64th Field Maintenance Squadron (64th FMS) was an essential support unit within the United States Air Force, primarily assigned to maintain the operational readiness of aircraft and related equipment. Activated during the Cold War era, the squadron was stationed at bases such as Reese Air Force Base in Texas, where it provided maintenance and logistical support for training aircraft, including the T-37 Tweet and T-38 Talon. The 64th FMS played a crucial role in ensuring that pilot training operations ran smoothly by performing inspections, repairs, and overhauls. The squadron's efforts contributed significantly to the mission success of the host wing until its inactivation in the late 1990s following the closure of Reese AFB.
