VFA-132 was established on 3 January 1984, operating the F/A-18C Hornet from NAS Lemoore, CA. They made their inaugural deployment aboard the USS Coral Seal (which was retired in 1989) and saw combat operations during the Operations Prairie Fire and El Dorado Canyon against Libya. They transitioned to the USS Forrestal upon return, then were decommissioned themselves when the USS Forrestal became the Navy's training carrier in 1992. This patch does not come with velcro attached.

This is one of the "old" versions of their squadron patch showing the *PRIVATEER* (which is a fancy name for BUCCANEER), and does not come with velcro attached.
