Unit History & Information
The 401st Fighter Squadron flew P-38 Lightnings with the 370th Fighter Group during World War II. After training in the United States, the squadron deployed to England and served with the Ninth Air Force, supporting the Allied campaign in Europe. Its pilots took part in the air war over France and Germany, including fighting around Aachen. The squadron was inactivated in November 1945, but its lineage continued after the war: it was redesignated the 173rd Fighter Squadron and allotted to the Nebraska National Guard in May 1946.
