Fleet Logistics Support Squadron 50 (VRC-50), known as the "Foo Dogs," was a United States Navy squadron established in 1966. The squadron specialized in Carrier Onboard Delivery (COD) missions, utilizing aircraft such as the C-1 Trader, C-2 Greyhound, and C-130 Hercules to transport personnel, mail, and high-priority cargo to aircraft carriers and other fleet units throughout the Pacific and Indian Oceans. VRC-50 played a crucial logistical role during the Vietnam War and continued its support operations through the Cold War period. The unit was disestablished in 1994, with its mission and assets redistributed to other Navy logistics squadrons.
