Particularly in view of the remainer of the quote, I doubt this web site can be regarded as a reliable source. I know of no missile wing that had more than 4 operational squadrons. (see

thank you for clearly getting started on this Augean stable. Can see you've started with the air refueling wings. However, R.E. Mixer did get one thing right: our syntax for titles. Should for preference be in the form 'Air refueling wings of the United States Air Force' when you move or set up new

That widening is up to you. Would you be prepared to add the additional content? You're our expert on this field. Otherwise would just go for something that decreases the overemphasis on SAC rather than the USAF as a whole (and avoids acronyms in a title).

Sounds like a much better title to me. There were no USAF Strategic
Missile Wings not assigned to SAC. However, it strikes me that this article is a little narrow for an encyclopedia. Perhaps the article should be made more inclusive as
