Ah.

BTW, there is no longer a single monster-sized VMAQ squadron. VMAQ-4 was forced to give up their "Seahawks" logo, too.

Yeah, I know. Q-2 was split, on paper at least, in July of 1992. Det X-Ray became Q-1, Det Yankee became Q-2 and Det Zulu became Q-3. Q-4 used to be a reserve EA-6A squadron in MAG-49 up at Whidbey Island. Talk about doing that was going on in the early 80s. All four are home based at Cherry Point but the scuttlebutt way back when was that one each would be permanently stationed at the Pit, El Toro, Iwakuni and the fourth would be assigned to whichever CVW the squids couldn't support.
