VA-36 Third Squadron Patch (Yellow Border)

Located at NAS Oceana, the Roadrunners were one of the nine A-6E Intruder squadrons stationed on the East Coast. This, the third of their three squadron patch designs, symbolizes their squadron mascot. The third, the Warner Brothers cartoon roadrunner, was actually the patch of the 1960s squadron which flew A-4s. This squadron was disestablished in 1970, although this patch was also produced and sold by the later VA-36 in the 1980s as an historical/retro/repro item.
