MACS-7

Marine Air Control Squadron 7 (MACS-7) is a United States Marine Corps aviation command and control unit originally activated during World War II in 1944. The squadron played a critical role in providing aerial surveillance, airspace management, and air defense in the Pacific Theater, notably supporting operations in Okinawa. Over the decades, MACS-7 was deactivated and reactivated several times, adapting to evolving military needs during the Cold War and beyond. The unit was ultimately decommissioned in 1993, leaving a legacy of excellence in Marine Corps air control operations.
