224th Joint Communication Squadron The 224th Joint Communications Support Squadron (JCSS) provides general tactical communications support to a myriad of missions. The mission of the 224th JCSS is to immediately deploy to provide en-route, early entry, scalable C4 support to the regional combatant commands, special operations command, and other agencies as directed; and, on order, to provide additional C4 services within 72 hours to support larger CJTF/ CJSOTF Headquarters across the full spectrum of operations. JCSS maintains a professional force of trained, rapidly deployable communications. The units diverse and flexible organization comprises three active duty squadrons, two Air-National Guard Squadrons, and one Army Reserve squadron. The 224th is a model of the total force and its units routinely exercise and deploy together, making for an effective team capable of accommodating a wide range of mission options and tasks. The 224th JCSS deployed 26 members to 15 different locations in five countries from August 2010 to March 2011. The ability to meet emerging missions was evident when four of those members were redirected to provide support in Pakistan for flood relief efforts. Since May 2006, the 224th JCSS has maintained a continual rotation with 10-month mobilizations. At the same time, the unit has supported the U.S. Navy on its humanitarian missions, providing medical and civil engineering aid to Central American countries for six months. The 224th JCSS is also heavily involved in the Global Information Grid, which is an extension of the Defense Information Systems Agency. The units diverse mission set contributes to an operational tempo that is among the highest of any squadron in the Department of Defense, Active or Reserve. (Word Count 268)
