Re: CVG-5 Korea

Just to clarify, Mueller was appointed C.O. of VF74B on the date of its commissioning, 1 May 1945. At the same time he became temporary CAG of Air Group 74, but only for ten days until Cdr. J.T. Blackburn arrived to take over. On 1 August 1945 VF74B ceased to exist and VF74A became VF74, absorbing the pilots from 74B. I don't know what happened to Mueller at that point.
