Description:

Home Welcome to the web site for the 6994th Security Squadron.The 6994th Security Squadron served in Southeast Asia from 1966 thru 1974.The air crews, with the support of our ground crews, flew in unarmed WWII vintage EC-47 aircraft and earned the motto, “Unarmed, Alone, and Unafraid. This Air Force Squadron was responsible for locating and identifying the enemy using airborne radio direction finding (ARDF) techniques and collecting intelligence information in support of ground combat commanders.As a result of their work, many attacks on friendly forces were mitigated and it has been reported that up to 95% of the B-52 attacks in Vietnam were based in part on information collected by the squadron.This squadron is still the most highly decorated squadron in the history of the current 16th Air Force and all of its predecessor organizations.This web site is dedicated to the back-enders and all support personnel of the 6994th Security Squadron who served in the Southeast-Asian conflict back in the 1960 s and 1970 s. The purpose of this site is to provide information about the mission and the people of the 6994th Security Squadron who served during the Vietnam War. We are a group of rapidly aging and steadily disappearing veterans, of a war that was fought with skills and talents not normally associated with the military, nor understood by the general public. Our pride is in accomplishments that are often secret, and memories are about things that happened, but will be officially denied . Bill Mahan (FTVA), 15 June, 2008
