Unit History

The South East Army Air Force Training Center was established during World War II as part of the United States Army Air Forces’ effort to rapidly expand and train aircrew and support personnel. The center was responsible for overseeing and coordinating the training activities at various airfields and bases located in the southeastern United States. Its mission included the management of basic, advanced, and specialized training programs for pilots, navigators, bombardiers, and other aircrew members. The center played a crucial role in preparing thousands of airmen for combat and support roles during the war. After the conclusion of World War II, the training center was inactivated as part of the postwar drawdown and reorganization of the Army Air Forces.
