The across-the board spending cuts, called sequestration, took effect 1 March when Congress failed to agree on a deficit-reduction plan.[5] Squadrons either stood down on a rotating basis or kept combat ready or at a reduced readiness level called “basic mission capable” for part or all of the remaining months in fiscal 2013.[5] This affected the 391st Fighter Squadron with a stand-down grounding from 9 April-30 September 2013.[5] Lineage
