KEY NOTES:

* These squadron detachments were not aboard the carrier for the entire deployment.

** This carrier returned from deployment prior to the beginning of combat operations in Vietnam during 1964.

*** VAQ-135 Detachments 3 and 5 were transferred on 25 August 1973 to VAQ-130.  VAQ-135 Det 3 became VAQ-130 Det 2 and VAQ-135 Det 5 became VAQ-130 Det 5.

**** VAW-111 Det 6 was transferred in March 1974 to RVAW-110 and became RVAW-110 Det 6.

# On 20 April 1967 Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron 111 (VAW-111) was established and VAW-11 detachments became part of VAW-111.  VAW-11 Det Q became VAW-111 Det 20.

## This deployment involved an experiment with the composition of the carrier air wing in a multimission role.  Several of the squadrons were shore-based in the Philippines during different periods of this deployment.

###VAH-10 was redesignated VAQ-129 on 1 September 1970.

+On 1 October 1968 VAQ-13 and its detachments were redesignated VAQ-130.

FOOTNOTES

1.  VAW-13's records for 1966 do not specify the carriers they operated aboard.  However, the records indicate VAW-13 Det 1 (located at Cubi Point, P.I.) provided detachments in support of fleet strikes from the carriers on Yankee Station.

2.  VAW-13 did not submit a Command History Report for 1967, consequently, it is not possible to verify all the squadron's detachments operating aboard carriers on Yankee Station in 1967.

3.  VQ-1's Command History Report for 1967 did not identify the detachments or carriers they operated from in support of combat operations against Vietnam.

4.  VAP-61's Command History Report for 1968 indicated continued support of 7th Fleet carriers on Yankee Station.  However, the squadron's report does not identify the detachments deployed aboard carriers in WestPac during 1968.

5.  HC-7 was established on 1 September 1967.  In 1968 an HC-7 detachment was formed and given the mission of maintaining year-round combat configured helos aboard carriers and other ships operating on Yankee Station for combat search and rescue missions.  The 1968 Command History Report for HC-7 does not identify all the specific ships that detachment 110 operated aboard.

6.  VQ-1 detachments continued to support carrier operations in Vietnam, however, the 1968 Command History Report for VQ-1 does not mention any detachments that were aboard carriers operating on Yankee Station.

7.  VQ-1 and VAP-61 detachments provided support from DaNang Air Base, Republic of South Vietnam, for Fleet carriers operating on Yankee Station in 1969.

8.  On 30 June 1975, all carriers with the designation CVA or CVAN were changed to CV or CVN to reflect the multimission capability of the carrier.
