I see a few errors! Cherokee Trail and Goobler Woods were the FTX for the old SFOC. Det-10 3d Gp was the G-Chiefs and whatever.
SFTG ran a Branch FTX in Pisgah.
We had 6 weeks of classroom UW training and a 2 week FTX in Pisgah.

That was the way Phase 3 was run in Uwharrie in '71-'72; not sure how long after that it changed.
