The 4th Military Information Support Group (Airborne) (formerly the 4th Psychological Operations Group (Airborne) (4th PSYOP Group (A) or 4th POG)) is one of the United States Army's active military information support operations units along with the 8th Military Information Support Group, which was activated 26 August 2011 at Fort Bragg.
