The Airfield Defence Guards are the Royal Australian Air Force's ground security force. The Airfield Defence Guards' responsibilities include protecting the RAAF's equipment, personnel, assets and facilities. The Airfield Defence Guard force was established in 1966 and ADG units have served overseas in Vietnam, Cambodia, East Timor, Afghanistan and Iraq. The ADG squadrons were formerly grouped as No. 1 Airfield Defence Wing, but after becoming security squadrons were moved under the Combat Support Group.
