The company is normally assigned to a headquarters and headquarters squadron, air depot group (T/O 1-852) on the basis of 1 company per 3 depot repair squadrons (T/O 1-857) and 3 depot supply squadrons (T/O 1-858). To meet special situations the company may be organized with fewer or more storage and issue and repair sections. The several sections of the table should not be split, because the tool and testing equipment provided is not susceptible of subdivision.
