The **505th Troop Carrier Group (TCG) "GUANG TRI"** was a U.S. Air Force unit activated during World War II, primarily responsible for air transport and airborne operations in the Pacific Theater. The group was notably involved in major campaigns such as the liberation of the Philippines, where it provided critical airlift support for troops, equipment, and evacuation missions. Later, the 505th played a supporting role during the Vietnam War era, operating out of bases near Quang Tri, South Vietnam, and assisting in tactical airlift and resupply missions for allied forces. Its legacy is marked by adaptability and valor under challenging combat conditions, contributing significantly to both logistical and combat air support operations.
