On February 6, 1952 the 325th Fighter -Interceptor Wing was deactivated and replaced by the activation of the 4704th Air Defense Wing on February 1, of that year. The 4704th absorbed all personnel, equipment and responsibilities of the 325th. A little more than a year later, February 16, 1953 the 4704th was redesignated as the 567th Air Defense Group, this new group ushered in many changes at McChord.
