1959-1963: Pictures were taken at El Toro marine base between 1959-1962. My husband, Cpl. Robert H. Glazier (Baby Huey) was stationed there. Some of his buddies were John Craig Smith (Smitty), from New Haven, CT and Willard Lucus (Luke), from Chicago, IL. 
One of my memories was the XMAS party the squadron had for orphaned boys in the hangar. All the guys bought toy guns and holsters for themselves and the kids and played cowboys in the hangar. Santa rode in on top of a jet, in front of the tail. They made snowmen out of tumbleweed and painted them white.
There also was the great football game between the Marines and the guys from Tustin (LTA). Eel Toro won!
And then there was the blood these guys lined up for to give a little girl blood.
We loved renting tents from special services and camping on Huntington Beach, it was called "Tin Can Beach" at the time, because that's what was thrown on the beach."

Capt. Guzman lost control of his jet and had to eject immediately, while Maj. Norman E. Pridgen, the pilot of the other Skyhawk, was able to reach the coast before having to eject. Both pilots were rescued by helicopter.

May 13, 1968: Cpl. Arthur L. Waldorf was critically burned in a flash fire which occurred during refueling operations on the flight line after a night combat mission. Cpl. Albert J. Faung, seeing Cpl. Waldorf engulfed in flames, rushed to him, tore off his burning clothing, and helped him to a nearby water barrel. Cpl.

June 6, 1968: Capt. Charles B. Coltrin was taxiing into the line when the left brake failed. The plane veered to the right and ran off the taxiway hitting a passenger boarding ramp with the right-wing tip. The nose and main gear then sank into soft sand and the aircraft overturned. Capt. Coltrin was uninjured, but the jet was seriously damaged. 

June 24, 1968: Major Ralph K. Park's Skyhawk settled back onto the runway after takeoff rupturing the centerline fuel tank.

Major Park suffered a fractured ankle and first- and second-degree burns and the Skyhawk received major damage and was transferred to the rework facility in Japan.

June 25, 1968: Capt. Charles B. Coltrin ejected safely after his Skyhawk (BuNo 147804) was hit by .50 caliber ground fire while attacking an automatic weapons position near Khe Sanh. The aircraft went out of control and was recovered by helicopter. 

October 1, 1968: All hopes of salvaging the squadron's safety record came to an abrupt end when an A-4 (BuNo 147767) flown by 1st Lt. David I. Habermacher, Jr., crashed. On take-off for a single plane ground-controlled bombing mission his left main tire blew, and he lifted off on the extreme left side of the runway. The right main gear struck the MOREST arresting gear engine and the left gear struck a revetment. As the aircraft began to settle Lt. Habermacher safely ejected while his Skyhawk hit the ground and burst into flames and was completely destroyed. From Mark Williams. 

North Vietnamese gunners shot down an A-4 Skyhawk (H&MS-11 BuNo 153523) acting as an artillery spotter for the USS New Jersey but paid dearly. The mighty ship swung her 16-inch guns from the targets she was devastating near the DMZ and blew the AAA batteries to pieces. The two pilots were rescued as the U.S. chalked up its 902nd air loss of the war over the north. Two other Skyhawks (VMA-121 BuNo 151159 and VMA-223 BuNo 147767) were lost apparently by accident during landings and takeoffs at Chu Lai in South Vietnam. Both Marine pilots escaped. UPI, San Mateo Times, October 2, 1968

October 21, 1968: Capt. Don A. Wellman landed at Chu Lai just after dark on a return flight from Ubon. With his attention focused primarily on watching the runway ahead of him. Capt. Wellman did not notice that he was on the right edge of the runway until just before the right wing of his Skyhawk (BuNo 151122) struck the arresting gear revetment. The pilot suffered an injured shoulder, and the A-4 was destroyed. And from Mark Williams who knew him personally: The plane’s wing struck the revetment that protected the Morest spool and went off the right side of the runway. As it swerved, the left wing dug into the sand and the aircraft fuselage rolled off the wing and broke into two sections, the left side of which was still precariously attached to the wing. The cockpit section was almost upside down but had room for the pilot to open the canopy. I crawled under, safetied his seat, unstrapped him, and hauled him out. The blivet (old drop tank with a door cut in it) which contained soda picked up for our coffee mess broke up scattering coke cans for over 1,000 feet.

1965 - February 1970: Supported military operations in Vietnam including 1,234 sorties flown in May 1967, and delivering 1,723 tons of ordnance in December 1968

January 24, 1969: Capt. Michael P. Green was shot down while flying close air support for units of the 1st Marine Division near Thuong Duc. Capt. Green received several hits from enemy small arms fire, but he managed to get the crippled Skyhawk (BuNo 151097) out over the ocean before he ejected. A U. S. Navy boat picked him up and returned him, uninjured, to Chu Lai.

February 1970: TransPac the Squadron Skyhawk to Marine Corps. Air Station El Toro, California.

August 1970: Received the A-4F Skyhawk.

August 12, 1971: Capt. Raymond "Guy" Neely ejected safely from A-4F Skyhawk BuNo 155041 after a flameout in the break at NAS Fallon due to a stuck fuselage fuel tank float valve. There was no fire after the airplane pancaked into a field and the fuselage tank was pretty much intact and dry. So, despite a fuel quantity reading of somewhere between 1500-2000 pounds, the engine quit. Guy was landing at Fallon to refuel prior to returning to El Toro following a A20R simulated nuke run from MCAS El Toro. From Bob Lange.

October 22, 1971: Major Ed Huff ejected from A-4F Skyhawk BuNo 155038 and was picked up unharmed, but wet, in the vicinity of San Clemente Island/Catalina Island when the engine seized during a post maintenance inspection flight from MCAS El Toro. The cause was not conclusively determined but the engine had been worked on and one of the wrenches used during the work was missing from the tool room. It was surmised, not assumed, that the wrench had been left in the engine spaces and fod'ed the engine during the flight. From Bob Lange.

June 1972: Moved to Marine Corps. Air Station Yuma, Arizona.

1975: Became the first Fleet Squadron to receive the Douglas A-4M Skyhawk, the most advanced version of Skyhawk series.

March 1976: The World Famous VMA-223 Bulldogs posing in front of A-4M BuNo 159784, WP-17, Yuma, AZ, NAS Fallon Deployment, March 1976. For a kick all the pilots wore orange flight suits, cowboy hats and grew mustaches. When we parked on the flight line on arrival the advance crew met us with cold Coors (it was the thing back then) and a cigar (smoked it away from the flight line)! The base commander didn’t think much of our cowboy hats, but our Skipper said if his navy guys could wear baseball caps, our guys could wear cowboy hats! The Commander compromised and said we could wear the cowboy hats from the BOQ to the hangar and back, but not the rest of the base. One weekend we went skiing and wore the orange flight suits. Ah, the things we did back in the day. Today . . . well, it’s a different world. Ed Benes.

July 1976: The Bulldogs deployed to Iwakuni, Japan for 12-month tour.

April 18, 1977: Capt. Cliff Gion was pulled off the runway because the MOREST was set on one side for an A-6 and departed the runway 800 feet after hook disengagement crossing a cement slab shearing the nose gear allowing the nose to strike the ground and pirouette around the nose landing gear, Iwakuni, 18 April 1977. From Cliff Gion. The flight leader briefed the pilots to make MOREST landings because of wind conditions. After the 1st A-4 successfully trapped an A-6 pilot called in for an emergency landing. Both arresting gear NCO's attempted to change the throttles on the arresting gear to accommodate the A-6, but one wasn't able to change the setting and informed the tower that the M-21 gear was down. Shortly thereafter the tower cleared the 2nd A-4 (BuNo 159482) for a MOREST landing. The pit NCO again advised the tower that the MOREST was down. The tower didn't respond, and the A-4 trapped. During the rollout sequence the pilot started to pull the lower ejection handle but elected not to when he saw mud spraying past the canopy.

The pilot of an A-4 Skyhawk died when the airplane crashed Friday morning, near Stacy, about 25 miles east of MCAS Cherry Point. The Marine Corps would not release the name of the pilot until it notifies his next-of-kin The crash occurred at 10:11 a.m. on private property in Carteret County. Burlington Times-News, Saturday, November 1, 1980.

October 19, 1981: Tony “Pizza” Decandia ejected safely after an in-flight explosion doing gunnery practice over the South China Sea. Even though one shoulder was severely injured and dislocated, he managed to get in his raft. At this point, the other members assumed the scene command and set up a high/low cover so one guy could keep an eye on the raft and the other as radio relay since it was a couple of hundred miles out. We started to set up a cycle of A-4’s to make sure always to have eyes on Tony. The Navy launched an SH-3 crew who made a heroic flight to get Tony. They were at their max range, but they refused to leave him out there. They managed to pick Tony up and return to Cubi on fumes. From Pete Meyer. Official Accident summary stated aircraft crashed into sea following explosions, pilot ejected. Unofficially it was "Tony" had his jet blow up in the gun pattern off the Philippines. Speculation was that "Betty" shot him down, being out of position in the gun pattern. From Jim Winchester. VMA-223 A-4M BuNo 160241 was destroyed at South China Sea when aircraft crashed at sea following explosions, 19 October 1981. Pilot ejected. Naval Safety Center via Jim Winchester.

November 5, 1981: 1st Lt. Mark R. “Ragu” Savarese, 25, was rescued when his A-4M Skyhawk from MCAS Iwakuni crashed into Japanese waters and sank 10 miles south of Iwakuni Thursday. Pacific Stars and Stripes, Sunday, November 8, 1981. Saverese became the only A-4 Submarine driver… I flew with him in VMAT 102 when I was an instructor there. Later he told me he was flying wing and the lead got too low and dusted him off … he sank and had to manually release himself from the aircraft.  As I recall he was about 15 feet deep. From Paul E. Backs, 28 January 2016. About 45 minutes after takeoff the flight encountered icing and informed the leader that he had lost his airspeed indicator. The flight leader called on Ragu to fly in close formation so they could make a section approach to Iwakuni. The leader would make a missed approach and drop Ragu off when the "meatball" landing aid was sighted. Just after lowering flaps and landing gear in light rain and fog they became separated, and Ragu ended up in the water. From Jim Winchester.

Rescue workers searched through woods littered with wreckage from an A-4M Skyhawk Wednesday for 30-year-old Marine pilot Robin Helton, not knowing if he ejected before the crash. The jet went down about 6 p.m. Tuesday in a wooded are in northers Spartanburg County. Shortly before the crash air traffic controllers heard the pilot say he was in trouble. At 6:05 he declared an emergency and started a descent. Official at MCAS Cherry Point confirmed the plane was one of three in VMA-223 returning after a refueling stop at NAS Millington. Bluefield Daily Telegraph, Thursday, 31 October 1985. Official reports after the crash pointed to a failure in the plane’s oxygen and communications system as a possible cause. VMA-223 A-4M BuNo 160242 was destroyed at South Carolina when the aircraft crashed into ground during ferry flight. 29 October 1985. 1 fatality. Naval Safety Center via Jim Winchester.

Town recalls pilot killed in 1985 Skyhawk crash by Lee G. Healy - Times and Democrat, Spartanburg, SC, Sunday, November 7, 2010.
BOILING SPRINGS, S.C. — The thick wooded area where Marine 1st Lt. Robin Helton’s plane crashed 25 years ago is now a bustling Boiling Springs subdivision.
The scraps of scattered metal have long been cleared away and, until recently, a toppled monument was all that alluded to the deadly crash that brought a community together on a cold, rainy day.
The Boiling Springs community recently gathered again at the site, but this time to celebrate Helton’s memory and his service to his country.
Helton’s family, including his widow Connie Helton Mastrangelo, daughter Robyn Helton (who was just 7 months old when her father died), parents Don and Kathryn Helton, and others also returned for a short memorial and to unveil a new monument that will alert all passers-by to the ultimate sacrifice by a young Marine, husband and father.
On Oct. 29, 1985, Helton was flying a one-seat A-4 Skyhawk fighter plane from Nevada to Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C., where Helton had been stationed. Official reports after the crash pointed to a failure in the plane’s oxygen and communications system as a possible cause. Some 300 volunteers and rescue workers descended on the scene.
Despite the tragic circumstances that now connect her to Boiling Springs, Mastrangelo called the visit a homecoming. The Huntington, W.Va., resident has returned to Spartanburg about five times since her Helton’s death and each time is received with a warm welcome, as if by family.
“It is like coming home,” she said. “Everyone here is just like family. The Southern hospitality is alive here in Spartanburg.”
A monument was erected near the crash site in 1986, but it has since been moved away from the homes in the new Greene Creek subdivision and closer to Highway 9. Vandals have several times pushed the stone tablet over, prompting a local effort to install a new, sturdier monument.
Mastrangelo said she couldn’t thank the Boiling Springs community enough for the gesture, and for continuing to remember her husband. She reconnected with some of the rescuers she met 25 years ago, and again extended her gratitude for their efforts then and now.
Stewart Taylor was among the familiar faces. The 74-year-old Boiling Springs resident was a volunteer firefighter with the Boiling Springs Fire Department when Helton’s plane went down. He remembers the long hours spent at the crash site, and said it looked like a bomb exploded in the then-rural part of Spartanburg County.
It was the first emergency of that magnitude Taylor, or many from the department, had ever responded to. Taylor said the crash helped shape policies and procedures for the department.
“It’s wonderful to see what has happened here,” Taylor said, noting that he’s attended every local ceremony in Helton’s memory. The Army veteran said he feels a lifelong connection to the pilot, although the two never met.
Retired Marine Brig. Gen. Al Huey of Boiling Springs helped organize the recent event and said he felt a connection to Helton as a fellow Corps aviator.
“He’s tied to this community forever,” Huey said. “This community has really embraced him.”

1 June 1985. Unknown A-4M Skyhawk aircraft drops a bomb on Onslow Beach during Exercise Solid Shield '85, Camp Lejeune, NC. Photo by Sgt. T.K. Burch.
The A-4M over Onslow Beach is from either VMA-223 based at Cherry Point as the last active-duty A-4M unit on the east coast or it was from VMA-322, MAG-49 Det A, South Weymouth. We deployed 322 to Cherry Point in support of Solid Shield 85. Solid Shield 85 was 4/30/85-5/16/85 so the date may be the photographers release date. I flew 9 of the missions from 8 to 16 May including gassing the amphibs right off of Onslow with wintergreen from an AERO-14B spray tank!! Didn’t want the reserves to have all the fun. We did get a rather stern message from ADM Chang for flying too low (inside the 500’ bubble) over his boats during the fleet air defense exercises!! That must have been the Motley’s!
