INSCOM Mission Support Activity, Vint Hill Farms Station

The INSCOM Mission Support Activity (MSA) at Vint Hill Farms Station was a key component of U.S. Army intelligence operations during the Cold War. Established under the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command (INSCOM), the MSA provided vital administrative, logistical, and technical support to intelligence-gathering missions conducted at Vint Hill. The station itself, located in Virginia, served as a significant signals intelligence (SIGINT) and communications intercept site from World War II through the early 1990s. The MSA’s efforts were instrumental in maintaining the operational readiness and effectiveness of intelligence units stationed at Vint Hill until the facility’s closure in 1997.
