The 20th Supply Squadron (20th Supply SQ) was a logistics and support unit within the United States Air Force, primarily assigned to the 20th Fighter Wing. Activated during the post-World War II era, the squadron played a vital role in providing supply, materiel management, and logistical support to flying operations, ensuring combat readiness. Over the decades, the 20th Supply SQ supported various aircraft and deployments, adapting to evolving Air Force missions during the Cold War and beyond. The unit’s legacy is marked by its commitment to sustaining operational effectiveness until its functions were reorganized under new logistics structures in the early 2000s.

The 57th Supply Squadron was an integral logistics unit within the United States Air Force, originally constituted and activated during the Cold War era. Tasked with providing critical supply chain management, the squadron supported the operations of the 57th Fighter Wing at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada. Its responsibilities included the procurement, storage, and distribution of essential materiel to ensure the continuous readiness of assigned aircraft and personnel. Over time, its functions were reorganized and merged into broader logistics and support units as part of Air Force restructuring initiatives.
