VA-145 Swordsmen (1953-1993)

Welcome to Attack Squadron 145 homepage. VA-145 was a U.S. Navy attack squadron that served for 40 years as an active duty squadron and over three years as a reserve squadron (VA-702). This homepage is a tribute to those sailors who served as Swordsmen. I invite you to spend some time and learn about the "Best Attack Squadron in the Navy."

What's Here

We have over 350 former Swordsmen on our muster list, including 26 plank owners and 11 former Skippers. If you were a member of the squadron, drop me a note at bealsey@swordsmen.org. Send me the dates you were assigned and your workspace as well as your email address and I'll include you.
