This work sketches the achievements and personalities that have made VMA-223 such an outstanding Marine squadron. In World War II the squadron flew the Brewster F2A Buffalo, the Grumman F4F Wildcat and the Chance-Vought F4U-1 Corsair.
The author was a member of the squadron from February 1974 to July 1975.
