Following its NFDS career, this Herk sevred VMGR-352, -252 and -352 and was sadly dumped at Miramar from March 2005. It was last seen without engines and nose, and complete striupped from the inside in mid-2005. Most probably the aircraft was fully scrapped soon after.

Three brand-new Hornets passed MCAS El Toro (CA) on this day during their delivery flight to MCB Kaneohe Bay (HI). This 163772/DB-02, ordered in FY87, had a USMC career from August 1989 onwards. It flew with VMFA-235, -232, -212 and was transferred to the US Navy because it was less stressed in comparisation with US Navy carrier operated Hornets. It was assigned to VFA-86, -136, -125 and -122 before it returned to the USMC. It was then assigned to VMFAT-101 before it was retired to AMARC on 14 September 2018.

The Green Knights of VMA(AW)-121 - normally coded "VK-xx", just returned from a WestPac and Indian Ocean deployment with the USS Ranger (CV-61) and within Carrier Air Wing TWO that lasted from 24 February to 24 August 1989. BuNo 154167 was delivered to the US Navy in 1968. It was transferred to the USMC and later returned to the US Navy. After a storage period at Andrews (MD) from May 1998 it was handed over to the National Air and Space Museum, Steven F Udvar-Hazy Center (VA) where it is preserved since. 154167 is seen here returning from a mission at El Toro, check those nice airbrakes!

Three brand-new Hornets passed MCAS El Toro (CA) on this day during their delivery flight to MCB Kaneohe Bay (HI). This 163769/DB-00, ordered in FY87, had a USMC career from August 1989 onwards. It flew with VMFA-235, -232, -212 and was transferred to the US Navy because it was less stressed in comparisation with US Navy carrier operated Hornets. It was assigned to VFA-97, -81 before it was retired to AMARG on 16 July 2008. It received inventory code 1A0087. Strangely enough, it left AMARG in January or February 2017 and returned in January 2018.

Hot pit refueling of a VMFA-323 "Death Rattlers" Hornet at homebase El Toro. This Block 21 (Lot 9), fiscal year 1985 Hornet was delivered to the US Navy on 10 Mar'87 and served VFA-12. It was later transferred to VFA-161 and then to the USMC VMFA-323 (as pictured), VMFA-531, again VMFA-323, then VMFA-314 and returned to the US Navy in 1996 with the NSAWC. It again was moved to the USMC with VMFA-142 and sadly crashed during an 1v1 air combat manoeuvring mission near Comanche (TX) after it entered an uncontrolled low-rate flat spin on 3 December 1999. The pilot ejected safely
