836th Security Police Squadron

The 836th Security Police Squadron was an Air Force security unit assigned to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson, Arizona. Activated during the Cold War era, the squadron was responsible for base security, law enforcement, and protection of critical Air Force assets, notably supporting the operations of the 836th Air Division. Its personnel played a vital role in maintaining high alert readiness, especially during heightened tensions and nuclear deterrence missions. The squadron was eventually inactivated or redesignated as part of broader Air Force security and organizational restructuring in the late 20th century.
