==History==
The group was formed in 1957 when Air Defense Command (ADC) assumed responsibility for air defense of Newfoundland from Northeast Air Command (NEAC). It was a tenant organization at Ernest Harmon AFB, a Strategic Air Command base, and whose 4081st Air Base Group assumed host base duties from NEAC.〔( Abstract, History of 64th Air Div, Apr 1957-Dec 1957 ) (accessed 19 Jan 2012)〕 The group controlled both radar and fighter squadrons in Canada. Assigned the 61st Fighter-Interceptor Squadron (FIS), flying Northrop F-89 Scorpion aircraft,〔Cornett & Johnson, p.117〕 which was already stationed at Harmon, and two remote Aircraft Control & Warning Squadrons as its operational elements.〔Cornett & Johnson, p. 97〕 These units were transferred from NEAC.〔〔 In October 1957, the 61st FIS moved to Wisconsin to replace the 323d FIS, which moved from Wisconsin in a swap of stations.〔〔Maurer, p.398〕 The 323d FIS, however, flew newer F-102 Delta Daggers,〔Cornett & Johnson, p.125〕 rather than Scorpions. The 4731st provided air defense of northeast North America. The group was discontinued in 1960〔 and subordinate units assigned to Goose Air Defense Sector.
