674 Radar Sq Osceola

The 674th Radar Squadron was a United States Air Force unit stationed at Osceola Air Force Station, Wisconsin. Activated in 1950, the squadron operated as part of the Air Defense Command, providing early warning and ground-controlled interception radar coverage during the Cold War. Its mission was to detect and track potential airborne threats to the upper Midwest region, contributing to the continental air defense network. The 674th Radar Squadron was inactivated in 1968 as advances in radar technology and changes in defense strategy led to the closure of many similar sites.
