 | | The Air Force’s security forces team is an essential part of Bagram’s Integrated Base Defense, led by the U.S. Army. |
 | | “We are tasked to provide total security for about two-and-a-half miles of flightline, covered with fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft,” said Capt. David Lydon, squaron commander. |
 | | In addition to mobile patrols and posted sentries at key locations along the flightline, members of the squadron here maintain the security forces’ control center, manage the Air Force’s ammunition supply and security forces’ vehicle fleet, as well as disseminate intelligence, process incoming and outgoing personnel and provide off-base security when needed. |
