squadron

One afternoon in January 1956, after an uneventful practice flight in his F.84F Thunderstreak, Powers was surprised to see his name on a list stuck to the squadron bulletin board.

The carrier strike group will join eight warships already deployed to the region, as well as a squadron of F-35Bs in Puerto Rico, special operations forces and other military hardware.

"It's a strain. It's hard. It's obviously the biggest violence you can give to a pilot," said Dutch squadron commander Bram Versteeg.
