24th STS T-Shirt (Black Logo)

Before it carried the 24th designation, elements of the unit operated under “Brand X,” conducting classified missions tied to early special operations efforts, including operations related to Iran.
That foundation carried forward into decades of sustained combat operations. From Panama and Mogadishu to Iraq and Afghanistan, 24th STS operators have been embedded in high-risk missions across multiple theaters.
That demand hasn’t changed. From those early classified efforts to modern operations supporting large-scale campaigns like Operation Epic Fury, the unit remains at the center of high-priority, high-consequence missions.
Widely regarded as one of the most decorated and operationally significant units in the modern Air Force, that reputation was built over time, mission by mission.
For those who’ve worn it, worked alongside it, or understand what it represents.
STS, Inc. is bringing back the old-school designs that meant something. Trademarked and unapologetic.

CCT History
Combat Control Teams (CCT) were established in 1953 to provide air traffic control and command-and-control capabilities in support of U.S. and allied special operations. Evolving from WWII pathfinders and glider operations, CCTs became essential for establishing drop zones, landing zones, and assault strips in denied or austere environments. Over the decades, they’ve deployed alongside every U.S. SOF element, enabling precision airpower in conflicts from Southeast Asia to the Middle East. CCTs are uniquely qualified as FAA-certified air traffic controllers and hold a wide array of advanced skills: they are certified Joint Terminal Attack Controllers (JTACs), combat divers, static-line and military free-fall parachutists (HALO/HAHO), qualified in demolitions, small unit tactics, survival/evasion/resistance/escape (SERE), communications, fire support coordination, and reconnaissance. Their ability to integrate air and ground operations under extreme conditions makes them one of the most versatile and mission-critical assets in U.S. special operations.
