Establishment and disestablishment of USAF units

I see that you have added establishment and disestablishment categories to USAF units. I've removed a couple because:

USAF units are not disestablished when they are inactivated. They are only disestablished when they are demobilized, disbanded, or (in some cases) discontinued. Maurer, Maurer, ed. (1983) [1961]. Air Force Combat Units of World War II (PDF) (reprint ed.). Washington, DC: Office of Air Force History. ISBN 0-912799-02-1. LCCN 61060979. Retrieved December 17, 2016., Maurer, Maurer, ed. (1982) [1969]. Combat Squadrons of the Air Force, World War II (PDF) (reprint ed.). Washington, DC: Office of Air Force History. ISBN 0-405-12194-6. LCCN 70605402. OCLC 72556. Retrieved December 17, 2016. and Ravenstein, Charles A. (1984). Air Force Combat Wings, Lineage & Honors Histories 1947-1977 (PDF). Washington, DC: Office of Air Force History. ISBN 0-912799-12-9. Retrieved December 17, 2016. all have explanations of USAF organizational terms.

The categorization of unit establishements is customarily done at the entry for the unit name at the time it was established, per WP:RCAT. So there would be no entry for the 430th Bombardment Squadron, for example. Rather there would be entries at its predecesor units, the 44th Aero Squadron and the 44th Squadron (United States Army Air Service).

These two categories tend to be underused, so keep on adding them where appropriate. --Lineagegeek (talk) 21:10, 29 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"Military units"

Some of the units you are categorising are police units: diff. Suggest these be avoided. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:48, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
