678th Radar Squadron

The **678th Radar Squadron** was an Air Force unit activated during the Cold War era, primarily tasked with general surveillance radar operations as part of the United States’ air defense network. Established in 1951, the squadron was initially stationed at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida, before relocating to the Snow Mountain Air Force Station in Kentucky. It played a crucial role within the Air Defense Command, monitoring the skies for potential airborne threats and coordinating with interceptor forces. The squadron was inactivated in 1970 as part of a broader reduction in continental air defense forces.
