Who We Are And What We Do |
The VP Association is a
group composed of veterans and friends of the Naval Air Reserve patrol squadrons
that were based over the years at NAS Squantum, MA; NAS
South Weymouth, MA; and NAS Brunswick, ME. The
group functions mainly as a mechanism to help keep former members of these units
in touch with each other and with what's going on in the world of maritime
patrol aviation.
Members of the VP Association meet informally for lunch at the Officers' Club at
Hanscom AFB in Bedford, MA on the last Thursday of the month between 11 AM and 1
PM, with scheduling adjustments made for holiday weeks. The group also holds an
annual reunion, also at the Officers' Club at Hanscom AFB, on a Saturday each
September. A quarterly newsletter is published every three months or so and
distributed by mail or e-mail (e-mail is the preferred distribution mechanism)
to members of the group.
The VP Association also periodically produces articles of memorabilia such as specially embroidered caps, polo shirts, replica squadron patches, books, etc., as fund-raisers for its Administrative Fund, some of which can be seen and ordered on-line via our "Geedunk" page.
Membership information is provided on our "Membership" page.
