It is a reserve associate of the active duty 91st Air Refueling Squadron. The squadron operates the KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft conducting air refueling missions. The squadron was activated during World War II as the 63d Troop Carrier Squadron. After Training in the United States, it deployed to the Southwest Pacific Theater, where it flew airlift missions, earning a Distinguished Unit Citation, Navy Meritorious Unit Commendation, and Philippine Presidential Unit Citation for its actions. After V-J Day, the squadron remained in the Philippines until inactivating in May 1946. The squadron was again activated in the reserve in 1947. In April 1951, the squadron was called to active duty for the Korean War. It moved to Japan, and again flew combat airlift missions, earning a Republic of Korea Presidential Unit Citation. In January 1953, the squadron was relieved from active duty, transferring its planes and personnel to a regular unit. It was activated the same day in the reserve. The squadron continued to fly airlift missions, and was again called to active service for the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. Except for a short period, when it was nominally a special operations unit, it flew airlift missions until 1992, when it converted to the air refueling role."@en . . "1942"^^ . .
