What is the minimum adjusted population for a group in the USAF?

• A. At least 100 personnel
• B. At least 200 personnel
• C. At least 400 personnel (200 for Air National Guard and AFRC)
• D. At least 600 personnel

Answer: (C)

In the Air Force, a group sits above a squadron and needs enough manpower to justify a group headquarters, staff, and the ability to support multiple squadrons. The minimum adjusted population to form a group is 400 personnel in active-duty units. For the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve Command, this minimum is reduced to 200 personnel because reserve-component group structures are smaller and operate under different staffing norms. So the standard threshold is 400, with an exception of 200 for ANG and AFRC.
