The “Silver Eagles” of VMFA-115 fly the F/A-18A Hornet from MCAS Beaufort, SC. They flew the F-4 Phantoms under MAG-31 during Vietnam, then later transitioned to the A-model Hornets in 1985. They routinely deploy to MCAS Iwakuni, Japan. This is the desert version of their 60th anniversary commemmorative patch.
