5/21/2014 - WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio -- A
ceremony marking the official activation of the 14th Intelligence
Squadron was held at the National Air and Space Intelligence Center May
17.
The 14th Intelligence Squadron is part of the latest intelligence
transformation initiative by the Air Force Reserve Command and will
create a unique acquisition intelligence capability for reservists.
The 14 IS will conduct intelligence analysis and assessments for Air Force Materiel Command.
The squadron will support the 21 Intelligence Squadron, a 55-member
active-duty unit assigned to the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center,
and work in collaboration with NASIC. These four organizations are
located at Wright-Patterson AFB.
According to Lt. Col. Dianne Hickey, 14 IS commander, "Fighting smarter
is key for the future, and intel is the key to fighting smarter." In
order to fight smarter, the 14 IS is being established using a diverse
group of people ranging from new Airmen to experienced acquisition
professionals, each offering different perspectives to an ever evolving
mission space.
The 14 IS reports to the 655th Intelligence, Surveillance and
Reconnaissance Group. The 655 ISRG oversees 11 Reserve intelligence
squadrons located in 6 different States. The Group, which first became a
detachment in November 2012, now oversees more than 700 Citizen Airmen
who already contribute to real-world operations.
