7th OMS

The 7th OMS, or 7th Organizational Maintenance Squadron, was a unit of the United States Air Force primarily responsible for the organizational-level maintenance of assigned aircraft. Activated during the Cold War, the 7th OMS was originally stationed at Carswell Air Force Base, Texas, as part of the 7th Bombardment Wing. The squadron played a crucial role in maintaining B-52 Stratofortress bombers, ensuring their readiness during periods of heightened alert and strategic operations. The unit was eventually inactivated or redesignated as Air Force maintenance structures evolved in the late 20th century.
