The 48th Fighter Wing has played an invaluable role in the history of the United States Air Force. When the 48th Bombardment Group (Light) originally activated on 15 January 1941, it provided pilot training as a close airsupport and air interdiction unit. The group and its flying squadrons participated in every major campaign on the Western Front during World War II. The unit changed names three times before inactivation as the 48th Fighter Group on 7 November 1945.
