Background

On a recent trip to the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum, I noticed two flags hanging in the naval aviation gallery, those of two fighter squadrons. Both were about 3:5 in silk-like fabric with fringe attached. I am aware of no regulation or specification for these flags, so assume that they are informal unit symbols similar to the "unrep" or "house" flags flown by ships under certain circumstances.

Fighter Squadron 14

Fighter Squadron 14 (recently redesignated Fighter-Attack Squadron 14), known as the Tophatters. The flag is red with the top hat insignia on a white disk on the center and the designation of the squadron in plain block letters. VFA-14 has been continuously in existence since 1919, making it the US Navy's oldest active aviation unit.

Fighter Squadron 41

Fighter Squadron 41 (recently redesignated Fighter-Attack Squadron 41), known as the Black Aces. The flag is essentially the same as the unit insignia, a spade from a deck of playing cards, with the unit number on the center, placed on a red diagonal stripe, with the letter A and the nickname of the squadron in the corners. VFA-41 was first formed in 1945.
