Description: VF-84 was established at NAS Oceana on July 1, 1955. The name at the time was "Wanderer Vagabonds" and it was equipped with FJ-3 Fury. The VF-84 "Jolly Rogers" name and logo are derived from the VF-17 of World War II. At that time, VF-17 was flying F4U pirates. In order to match the name of pirates, they used a skull and two bones as symbols. VF-17 was disbanded in April 1944, and VF-61 took on the "Jolly Rogers" name. In 1959, VF-61 was also disbanded, so VF-84 Vagabonds were approved in April 1960, continuing the tradition of "Jolly Rogers", becoming the famous VF-84 "Jolly Rogers", soon after their F -8U Crusaders painted with skulls. The skull is passed down from the VF-17, and we see the VF-84 "Jolly Rogers" livery with yellow and black straps on the fuselage, which is the tradition of the VF-84 "Vagabonds". In 1964, the VF-84 was refitted with F-4B "Ghosts" Phantoms, and later flew the F-4J and F-4N. At the beginning of 1976, the VF-84 was officially replaced with the F-14A, and in December 1977, the first F-14 voyage was made on the Nimitz (CVN-68 Nimitz). In 1979, VF-84 became the first squadron to be equipped with TAPRS pods. In 1980, VF-84's F-14 starred in the film "Countdown" , which made Skull and Tomcat become international superstars.
