About this Unit

3750th ABG

U.S. Air Force

The 3750th Air Base Group (ABG) was established by the United States Air Force and activated at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas, in July 1948. Its primary mission was to provide base support services, including administration, logistics, and facility management, for units assigned to the base, particularly those involved in technical training. Throughout its history, the 3750th ABG played a key role in supporting Air Training Command’s mission by ensuring the smooth operation of Sheppard AFB. The unit was eventually inactivated in the late 1950s as part of a broader Air Force reorganization and consolidation of base support functions.
