I believe they're still subordinate to the 81st Regional Readiness Command. See related link for more information. If they were to be deployed, they most likely would be separated from the 81st RRC, and reassigned to a different unit. Upon reassignment, they would wear the shoulder patch of whatever unit they were made subordinate to upon deployment.
