Summary edit

Description
English: Naval Air Station Oceana, Va. (Oct. 1, 2004) - Commanding Officer, Fighter Wing, U.S. Atlantic Fleet, Capt. William L. Kervahn, unveils a tombstone in memory of Fighter Wing Atlantic at the Officer’s Club on board Naval Air Station (NAS) Oceana following the decommissioning of Fighter Wing Atlantic. Headstones have traditionally been placed in front of the club signifying the last resting place of aircraft squadrons and commands. Originally established in July of 1971 as Fighter Wing One, the command has been responsible for overseeing the operations of the Navy’s fighter aircraft on both the east and west coasts. When the F-14 Tomcat fighter community was relocated from the west coast to NAS Oceana, the command was redesignated Fighter Wing Atlantic. The remaining F-14 Tomcat squadrons will be under the command of Strike Fighter Wing Atlantic as the remaining F-14s continue to transition to the F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet.
