6940th AB Group (USAFSS)

The 6940th Air Base Group (USAFSS) was a United States Air Force Security Service unit stationed at Goodfellow Air Force Base, Texas, during the Cold War. Activated in the early 1960s, its primary mission was to provide administrative and logistical support to USAFSS personnel engaged in intelligence and cryptologic training. The group played a vital role in preparing airmen for signals intelligence (SIGINT) operations worldwide. The 6940th AB Group remained active until the reorganization of USAFSS units in the late 1970s, after which its functions were absorbed by other support organizations at Goodfellow AFB.
