6933rd Security Wing

The **6933rd Security Wing** was a United States Air Force unit primarily engaged in signals intelligence (SIGINT) operations during the Cold War. Activated in the late 1970s, the unit was stationed at Karamürsel Air Station in Turkey, where it played a pivotal role in monitoring Soviet and regional communications. The 6933rd worked closely with the National Security Agency (NSA) and contributed significantly to US and NATO intelligence gathering efforts in the Eastern Mediterranean region. The wing was eventually inactivated as part of broader USAF restructuring and changes in intelligence priorities in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
