The 56th Weather Reconnaissance Squadron 56WRS was a relatively small tenant organization stationed at Yokota Air Base about an hours drive west of Tokyo Japan. Formally deactivated in May 1972, many assigned members transferred across base to 610MASS Military Airlift Support Squadron while others rotated to new assignments. The 55th WRS at McClellan AFB CA picked up the aircraft and missions that were occasionally required. 56WRS was on the opposite side of the flight line from main base where most all activities resided.
