Cybersecurity squadron to be based in Michigan

On Wednesday Governor Snyder announced that the Air National Guard base in Battle Creek has been one of four chosen in the nation to receive a cyber operations squadron.

The cyber operations squadron, assigned to the 110th Attack Wing, will bring about 70 jobs to the base. Some members there already have training and experience in cyber operations from their involvement with the Michigan National Guard’s inaugural Cyber Range Hub, which opened on the Battle Creek base in 2014.
