Narrative Information: A-112 may have evolved from Detachment A-110 in 1967, a redesignation of the split team at the FOB at Sa Huynh? It might have been redesignated A-163 o/a August 1968 as Third Battalion, 1st Mobile Strike Force Command. A-163 was converted to Border Ranger o/a 11/14/70.

I haven't figured out what was in A-163 if anything!
