HHC USASA

The Headquarters and Headquarters Company, U.S. Army Security Agency (HHC USASA), served as the command and administrative backbone for the Army Security Agency, which was established in 1945 to oversee signals intelligence and electronic warfare operations. HHC USASA provided leadership, logistical support, and mission coordination for specialized ASA units deployed worldwide during the Cold War, including operations in Europe, Asia, and Vietnam. Throughout its service, the unit played a vital role in supporting the Army’s intelligence-gathering efforts, contributing to national security by intercepting and analyzing enemy communications. The USASA underwent several reorganizations, eventually merging into the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command (INSCOM) in 1977, marking the end of its independent existence.
