92 Combat Defense Squardon

The 92nd Combat Defense Squadron was an Air Force unit activated during the early years of the Cold War to provide ground defense and security for Fairchild Air Force Base in Washington. Established in 1950, the squadron’s mission was to safeguard strategic bomber and missile assets assigned to the 92nd Bombardment Wing. Its personnel were trained in air base ground defense, security patrols, and emergency response operations. The squadron was later redesignated as the 92nd Security Police Squadron as part of the Air Force’s restructuring of base security forces in the 1970s.
