As part of a required Air Force report to Congress on the C-130 Hercules force structure, the Secretary of the Air Force has released a force structure amendment pursuing the retention of 10 Air Force Reserve Command C-130J aircraft at Keesler Air Force Base. According to the report, retaining the aircraft will provide the efficiency of operating two squadrons together under a single wing overhead. The report is available at http://www.fayobserver.com/air-force-report-on-c--force-structure/pdf_8af67970-e302-11e4-845f-6ff9ea3c949d.html.
