VR-6

Fleet Logistics Support Squadron 6 (VR-6) was a U.S. Navy Reserve squadron established during World War II to provide essential air transport and logistical support. Initially formed in late 1943, VR-6 operated primarily out of the continental United States and key forward bases, flying R5D (C-54) Skymaster aircraft to deliver personnel, mail, and critical supplies across the Atlantic and to various Allied outposts. The unit played a significant role in sustaining overseas operations by maintaining reliable airlift routes between the U.S., Europe, and North Africa. VR-6 continued supporting postwar logistical missions before being disestablished as part of the postwar drawdown.
