The 328th Fighter Group was a training unit based in the US South-West from 1942 until 1944.
The group was constituted on 24 June 1942 and activated on 10 July 1942. It joined the Fourth Air Force and was based in California for most of its existence. It formed part of the air defense force for the area and also as a replacement training unit for P-39 pilots.
The group was disbanded on 31 March 1944 early in a process that saw the USAAF change from a training scheme based on standard groups to one based on units organised around training bases.
