750th Space Group - History

History

The 750 SG deactivated in June 1999, following the recommendation of the 1995 Department of Defense Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) commission. Primary responsibilities for the AFSCN and Air Force support to Space Shuttle missions transferred to the 21st Space Operations Squadron, 50th Space Wing, Schriever AFB, Colorado; however the 22d Space Operations Squadron stood up at Onizuka AFS to provide a necessary backup.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    Universal history is the history of a few metaphors.
    Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

    He wrote in prison, not a History of the World, like Raleigh, but an American book which I think will live longer than that. I do not know of such words, uttered under such circumstances, and so copiously withal, in Roman or English or any history.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The true theater of history is therefore the temperate zone.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
