Although our name suggests we are only the 623rd AC&W veterans, in reality we are veterans of many groups involved in the air defense of Okinawa. These include, the 624th & 851st AC&W Sq, Det.1 HQ 313 Air Divsion, 529th AC&W Gr & 2152 Comm Sq ( Okinawa air defense).

pals", just click on the E mail address below. No obligation, and we'd
like to hear from you. Gary Friesen E-mail: friesengc@adelphia.net

The last known 
flag still existing that flew over any 623rd
AC&W Detachment was this one from Yoza Dake in 1973.
That same flag shown here somewhat faded and frayed, waves proudly for a few moments in New Jersey, July 11, 2001 to have her photo taken.
What is missing from the photo is the sound she made snapping in the wind.
Member John Park has kindly preserved her and passed her on for all of us.
