HSL-37

Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron Light 37 (HSL-37), known as the "Easyriders," was established on 3 July 1975 at Naval Air Station Barbers Point, Hawaii. As the first Light Airborne Multi-Purpose System (LAMPS) Mk I squadron in the Pacific Fleet, HSL-37 operated the SH-2F Seasprite helicopter, providing anti-submarine warfare (ASW) and anti-surface warfare (ASUW) support to surface combatants. The squadron transitioned to the SH-60B Seahawk in the early 1990s, enhancing operational capabilities. In 2013, HSL-37 was redesignated as Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron 37 (HSM-37), continuing its legacy of excellence in maritime operations.
