The 618th ACWS was operational in 1950 at Miho Air Base 
in Japan.  I believe that the 5th AF aircraft early warning 
function in Korea was done by the 502nd Tactical Control Group. 

I was a member of the 618th ACWS (Radar site) at Miho 1948-50.  Went to Korea 
soon after war began - assigned to Hq Sq 5AF at Taegu and Seoul, MOS 166, 
Powerman.
 Would like to hear from anyone who served in these units.
