848th ACFT CON WC SQ PACAF

The **848th Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron (848th AC&W Sq)** was a United States Air Force unit assigned to the Pacific Air Forces (PACAF). Activated in the early 1950s during the Cold War, the squadron played a vital role in air defense, operating radar sites in the Pacific theater to detect and track potential aerial threats. It was primarily stationed in Japan, including assignments at sites such as Kamiseya Air Station. The 848th contributed to regional security and early warning capabilities until it was inactivated in the early 1960s as radar defense strategies evolved.
