The
roster contains the names of VP-2 veterans for which we have had some
contact information, and association
members, including surviving spouses
(indicated by an uppercase surname).
The
site features biographical sketches for some members. They are displayed as a
way of thanking those whose loyal service to the Navy and to
their country contributed to the success of the Patrol Squadron Two
team in operations from before World War II to the Vietnam
War. It is hoped that visitors to this website will be
inspired to learn more about the people who served unselfishly in VP-2
during some very difficult periods in our nation's history.
Some of these men served the Navy for a single tour of duty;
some for many years; some for decades. All of
them sacrificed a bit of self to put their
country and the cause of freedom ahead of their own personal
interests.
Elsewhere
on this website, visitors can learn
about the Whidbey Patrol Squadron Memorial that
now stands proudly in Oak Harbor, Washington. The
Memorial is a monument to those whose names and biographies are
contained herein.
The contact
information below is available to family and friends of VP2
Association members for
personal communication purposes only. The data is only as
accurate and current
as the member chooses. Please send special requests or
updated
information to the association's Secretary/Treasurer.

addresses have been removed as a result of the entire list being
spammed by a member of an S2 aircraft group. This is the
first
time in five years that the limitation on use of posted
contact
data has been abused. [nvsoar_24Nov2008]
A parenthesis around a given name indicates that that person is
deceased.
