Torpedo Squadron (VT) 17 was established #OTD in 1943 and the squadron remains operational today as the VFA-25 Fist of the Fleet! Here are some views of squadron aircraft through the years.

Love the NNAM Facebook page.

Another good one is Naval History and Heritage Command.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

A-7 is cool in a weird way, just like the F-8.
