Squadron 7
History of VP-7 Black Falcons
In August 1944, at NAAS Camp Kearney, California, Patrol Squadron SEVEN was commissioned as VP-119. During WWII the squadron operated out of MCAS/NAS Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, and Clark Field in the Philippines. IN 1947, the squadron was renamed VP-ML-7 and moved to MCAS Miramar during which it transitioned to the P2V aircraft. That same year it moved again to NAS Quonset Point, Rhode Island. In 1948 the designation of Patrol Squadron SEVEN was given to the command.
In 1953, VP-7 again shifted operations to the Pacific to become the first east coast patrol squadron to join the United Nations forces in the Korean conflict. VP-7 operated out of Iwakuni, Japan under Fleet Air Wing SIX and in support of Task Force 77 until January 1954 and then returned to Quonset Point.
