165th Airlift Wing to Lose a C-130?

From the Charleston Daily Mail story:
http://www.dailymail.com/News/201003241001

"The Air Force plan calls for shifting 11 or 12 reserve C-130s from National Guard bases across the country to the Little Rock Air Force Base in Arkansas. Air Force officials say they need aircraft to replace aging inventory."

The article states that a C-130 will also come from a Georgia Air National Guard Base, which could only be the 165th ANG at Savannah IAP. There is a C-130 unit at Dobbins, but it is a Reserve unit.
