86-0222 arrived back at NAS Fort Worth on June 4th. So I wonder if they are or have already rotated some airframes in and out.

June 4th was the last day I noted 222, so it must have left that day.

The tanker is flying some local missions as Okie 81 and arrived from Tinker so may be a recent transfer or loaner to the unit there
