The United States Air Force's 64th Air Expeditionary Group (64 AEG) is a group of the 379th Air Expeditionary Wing located at Eskan Village in Saudi Arabia^[1], a compound about 20 km southeast of Riyadh.

The group is made up of about 300 security forces, support Airmen, and civilians. Their mission is to stand guard all day, every day, providing integrated defense, emergency response, and combat support for the base, which houses military and host-nation tenant agencies. Most days the Airmen are fighting the war on terrorism in temperatures of more than 100 degrees.^[2]
