Around 1975 VP93 was reactivated by the US Navy as a reserve squadron. The unit was only activated for 20yrs. Bill Clinton de-activated the major of these high skill naval squadrons and personal. As Clinton said the cold war was over. What people didn't the unit still tracked soviet submarines, but all the drug runner out of South American. I served with VP-93 as AE/FE on the P-3A. Sadly a lot of my squadrons of my era have past. This series of photos are for my good friends and Squadron mate.
