88th Communications Squadron (AFMC)

The 88th Communications Squadron (88 CS) is a United States Air Force unit assigned to the Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC), headquartered at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. Its origins date back to earlier communications units supporting the base and its predecessor organizations, adapting through numerous reorganizations and technological advances. The 88 CS provides comprehensive cyber and communications support, including network operations, cyber defense, and voice, video, and data services to over 30,000 personnel across Wright-Patterson AFB. As a critical enabler of AFMC’s research, development, and acquisition missions, the squadron ensures secure and reliable information flow for both day-to-day operations and contingency missions.
