Howdy guys,

Does anyone know when the following squadrons were first established?

91 Kokutai - 1998 when the UP-3D became operational???
101 Kokutai at Tateyama
121 Kokutai at Tateyama
122 Kokutai at Omura
123 Kokutai at Omura
124 Kokutai at Tateyama
201 Kyoiku Kokutai at Ozuki

Have spent many hours trawling the internet to no avail!

Chers,

Ian

91 Kokutai - 2001
101 Kokutai at Tateyama 1961
121 Kokutai at Tateyama 1974
122 Kokutai at Omura 1981
123 Kokutai at Omura 1998
124 Kokutai at Tateyama 1989
201 Kyoiku Kokutai at Ozuki 1961
