Tell us more. Especially about VF-2. (Were you a part of this outfit? If
so, when?)

Nope,
but in the early-1940's they and VF-5 with F3F-3's were deployed on the
Yorktown.
....
Remember when this NG used to be about Naval Aviation?

HELL, I remember when the SB2U-1 was the pride of the Ranger Air Group,
the Colorado had the 1st OS2U-1 and the Flying Chiefs (VF-2) had F2A-2's
on the Lexington.
