New NavAir Changes

Given the examples of late; it's coming from all over the place. i.e.,
VFC-13 Det KW wanted to use a _famous_ number, lineage history and
patch as a separate squadron. As a det it had only been established
one year ago.

It's Navy-wide (NAVAIR/OPNAV (AIR)?) regarding the redesignation of all
the operational helo squadrons -- one big, happy community w/ a basic
airframe in use.

In addition, it might be a way some folks are staying *employed* ...

Is NAVAIR designating operational squadrons today? Half a century ago it was

2006) and they're going to use the the patch & nickname of WW II's
VF-11 _The Sundowners_.

and last, but not least -
