6913th RSM

The 6913th Radio Squadron Mobile (RSM) was a United States Air Force signals intelligence unit activated in 1951 during the early years of the Cold War. Stationed primarily at Bremerhaven, Germany, the unit’s mission focused on intercepting and analyzing Soviet and Warsaw Pact communications as part of broader efforts to monitor potential threats to NATO forces in Europe. The 6913th RSM played a vital role in electronic surveillance, cryptologic operations, and providing intelligence support to U.S. and allied commands throughout its operational period. The unit was eventually inactivated in 1968 as technological advancements and strategic priorities led to the reorganization of Air Force intelligence assets.
