The aircraft arrived at the Air Force Reserve Command wing Saturday afternoon. The aircraft were previously operated by another Reserve unit, the 939th ARW from Portland, Ore. The BRAC decision realigned that wing's operational mission and directed that four of its aircraft would be assigned to the 507th ARW. The remaining two aircraft slated for assignment to the 507th are temporarily assigned to a different Air Force Reserve wing in Michigan. The aircraft transfer will bring the total of local tanker aircraft to 12.
