TRAVIS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. --  The 349th Maintenance Operations Flight  stood down as a separate organization and will continue its mission of aircraft scheduling, programs and mobility, training and orderly room under the 349th Maintenance Group.

Col. Jeff Pickard, 349th Maintenance Group commander, and Maj. Carlton Thompson Jr., 349th Maintenance Operations Flight commander, prepare to furl the 349th MOF guidon during an inactivation ceremony Nov. 17.

It is a military custom to furl and encase the flag of an organization when that organization's mission has ended.
