VMFA-321

Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 321 (VMFA-321), known as the “Hell’s Angels,” was a reserve squadron of the United States Marine Corps. Originally activated in 1943 during World War II as VMF-321, the squadron flew the F4U Corsair in the Pacific Theater. After deactivation post-war, it was reactivated as a Marine Reserve unit and later transitioned to flying jet aircraft, including the F-8 Crusader and F-4 Phantom II, before ultimately operating the F/A-18 Hornet. VMFA-321 was based at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland until its deactivation in 2004, marking over 60 years of service.
