97th Combat Support Group

The **97th Combat Support Group** was activated on November 16, 1952, at Biggs Air Force Base, Texas, as part of the United States Air Force. It provided essential base services and support for the 97th Bombardment Wing during the Cold War era, ensuring operational readiness of both personnel and equipment. The group was later relocated to Blytheville Air Force Base, Arkansas, and continued its mission of logistical, security, and administrative support. Over its history, the 97th Combat Support Group played a vital role in maintaining the effectiveness and sustainability of strategic bomber operations until its eventual inactivation.
