??VF-162-1967 VN combat cruise

Reading 'Over the Beach',

Questions-

-How many pilots did they deploy with? They had a det in Cubi and 10 jets...

-Seems like a pretty unhappy group. Dept heads that were either labeled as
effeminate or cowards, JOs that got short and yelled at the CO, a JO that
turned his wings in cuz he didn't agree with the war, A CO that wasn't very
well liked, a former CO that was committed to a looney bin...

I know it was over a long period of time and also during combat, which can
bring out the best and worse of people but it seems like a not very cohesive
group...

Anybody have an insight? Masher??
