7100 Security Police Sq

The 7100 Security Police Squadron was a United States Air Force unit assigned to Rhein-Main Air Base, Germany, during the Cold War. The squadron provided vital law enforcement, security, and force protection for U.S. personnel, aircraft, and resources, particularly during periods of heightened tension with the Warsaw Pact. Its airmen were responsible for base defense, anti-terrorism efforts, and the safeguarding of critical assets, including airlift operations supporting NATO. The 7100 Security Police Squadron played a crucial role in maintaining the security and operational readiness of Rhein-Main AB until its inactivation after the end of the Cold War and the eventual closure of the base in the 1990s.
