The United States Air Force's 324th Intelligence Squadron is an intelligence unit located at Joint Base Pearl Harbor–Hickam, Hawaii.
History
World War II
The first predecessor of the squadron was the 1st Photographic Lab Section, which was activated in October 1943 at Will Rogers Field, Oklahoma. After training in the United States, it served with Ninth Air Force in the European Theater of Operations until V-E Day, advancing across Northern Europe with American Forces. It remained in Germany as part of the occupation forces until inactivating in November 1945.[1]
Strategic reconnaissance
The 90th Reconnaissance Technical Squadron was activated at Forbes Air Force Base, Kansas in June 1952 to provide processing and interpretation of reconnaissance products for the 90th Strategic Reconnaissance Wing. In the fall of that year a second reconnaissance wing became operational at Forbes, and the 90th was replaced by the 815th Reconnaissance Technical Squadron, which supported the 90th and 55th Strategic Reconnaissance Wings until inactivating in the summer of 1958. These two squadrons and the World War II era 1st Photographic Technical Unit were consolidated into a single unit in October 1984 and given the designation 24 Reconnaissance Technical Squadron.[1]
Intelligence support in Hawaii
In 1980, Electronic Security Command organized the 6924th Electronic Security Squadron at Wheeler Air Force Base, Hawaii. In the 1990s, the Air Force eliminated units whose organization was controlled by its Major Commands (MAJCON or 4-digit units) The 6924th was converted to an Air Force controlled unit by consolidating it with the 24 Reconnaissance Technical Squadron (which had never been active with this designation) as the 324 Intelligence Squadron.[1]
