548th Intelligence Group

Mission

The 548th Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Group has a proud history dating back to the Second World War. The unit was originally constituted on 20 November 1943, as the 6th Photographic Technical Squadron (PTS) and was activated on 1 December of that year at Will Rogers Field, Oklahoma. In early 1945, the unit deployed to the Pacific Theater. The 6th PTS moved forward with the Allied Campaign against Japan, and provided support from various sites to include Guadalcanal and the Philippines. After World War II, the unit remained in Japan, at Yokota Army Air Base and Showa Air Station through 1960.
