Pacific Air Forces plans to deactivate its 607th Combat Communications Squadron in South Korea as part of a command-wide restructuring of its communications capability that will culminate with establishment of a regional unit at Andersen AFB, Guam, reports Stars and Stripes. The plan involves leaving some tactical comm capability—about 15 positions—at Osan AB, South Korea, and basing a larger unit, an as yet unnumbered squadron under Andersen’s 36th Contingency Response Group.
The ongoing government shutdown has not slowed progress on the Joint Advanced Tactical Missile, a congressional official said, correcting a previous statement from lawmakers about the secretive program.
