Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 214 (VMFA-214) is a United States Marine Corps fighter attack squadron flying the Lockheed Martin F-35B Lighting II. The squadron’s home field is Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Arizona, and it is assigned to Marine Aircraft Group 13 (MAG-13) of the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing (3rd MAW). The squadron is known as the “Black Sheep”. Its World War II exploits and the memoirs of commanding officer Colonel Gregory “Pappy” Boyington inspired the 1970s television show Baa Baa Black Sheep, later syndicated as Black Sheep Squadron.
The unit was commissioned as Marine Fighter Squadron 214 (VMF-214) on July 1, 1942, at Marine Corps Air Station Ewa on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. Initially called the “Swashbucklers,” the squadron was moved to Turtle Bay Airfield on Espiritu Santo in the New Hebrides in August. There Major Gregory “Pappy” Boyington (Medal of Honor, Navy Cross) took command of the 27 pilots that became the original “Black Sheep” of VMF-214. From Espiritu Santo the squadron was moved forward to Guadalcanal and Henderson Airfield in the Solomon Islands. From Guadalcanal they would be moved to Munda and Vella Lavella.
