SETAF is otherwise one of the US units not accounted for in the Twilight timeline, though I always kind of figured they got overrun when the Italians defected.
Actually I wrote it off as re-inforcement for the 82nd Airborne Division in the Middle East or some obscured Inter-Allied Airborne/Airmobile unit that was used as Fire Brigade during 1996 and 1997.
