"Ordered to Active Service to support airlift to Japan and South Korea in 1968 in support of the Pueblo incident. Relieved and returned to the reserve in June 1969."

This is not correct: the 915th MAG and its squadron - the 79th MAS - were transferred from the 445th MAW to the 459th MAW, which was not recalled to active service, on January 26, 1968 (until September 1, 1969).

So you maybe want to correct this error?!
