Quote from Wikipedia article: “Strategic Air Command”:
“SAC was disestablished as a Major Command (MAJCOM) on
1 June 1992. United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM),
a joint/unified combatant command, now performs the primary mission once held by SAC, and is headquartered at SAC's previous facilities at Offutt AFB, Nebraska.”
