History
It was reactivated in November 1948 at Fort Bliss, Texas.[2][better source needed] The 35th Anti-Aircraft Brigade subsequently moved to Fort Meade, Maryland in 1950 to provide anti-aircraft defense of Washington, DC and to plan the defense of other cities in the vicinity. There, the 35th Anti-Aircraft Brigade set an Air Defense Artillery milestone as it became the first Nike-Ajax guided missile command in 1957. In March 1958, the Brigade was redesignated as the 35th Artillery Brigade (Air Defense), and operated the country's first Nike-Hercules site at Davidsonville, Maryland. It included the 1st Battalion, 52nd ADAR. The Brigade was inactivated on 4 June 1973 at Fort Meade, Maryland.
