Fort Bliss, 3rd Weather Squadron, Det 3
Fort Bliss 3rd Weather Squadron Det 3 canvas art.
Detachment 3 (Det 3) is part of the 3d Weather Squadron (3 WS), and is responsible for providing weather support to the 1st Armored Division at Fort Bliss, TX. The unit was established in 2010 in response to the 1st Armored Division and its Combat Aviation Brigades arrival. Detachment 3, 3d Weather Squadron, supports the 1st Armored Divisions ground and aviation assets. The main goal of the unit is to provide tailored weather support to commanders, in order to help them exploit the weather for mission success.
The 3rd Weather Squadron is a unit of the United States Air Force. It was formed at Barksdale Field, Louisiana, on 24 June 1937, as part of the Signal Corps. The 3rd was one of three original squadrons that eventually transferred from the Signal Corps to the Air Corps. The 3rd Weather Squadron is currently the largest base- or post-level weather unit in the Air Force. The support provided by the squadron is as diverse as its history and that of the Army customers it supports. The squadron patch (depicted in this artwork) is Walt Disney’s Cupid which was sold to the unit for one US dollar during World War II, in efforts to raise troop morale.
