The 507th Bombardment Squadron is a former unit of the United States Army Air Forces. It was briefly activated in the spring of 1944, then activated again in the summer as a Boeing B-29 Superfortress unit. It trained for active service during World War II, but moved to its combat station of Kadena Airfield, Okinawa too late in the war to undertake combat missions. It remained on the island until it was inactivated on 28 May 1946.
