on July 1, 1962. The unit supported the 5th AF, and operated as an
AFSSO relay. I do not remember the org being a detachment (?). I
was in the 6922nd, on Okinawa at the time. That unit was re-
designated a "Security Wing" effective July 1st, and downsized at the
same time due to the transfer of many responsibilities to the newly
activated JSPC at Torii (Sobe) Field Station. Many of the teletype
operators were reassigned to the 88th at that time (my roommate being
one of the TTY operators). I do not know when the unit was
deactivated, possibly when Fuchu closed (?).
