VMA-331, "Bumblebees", was established at MCAS Cherry Point on January 1, 1943. The squadron was disestablished on October 1, 1992. This photo was taken during Exercise Teamwork '92 (in March), which I believe was the last deployment of the squadron. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. In this shot, the aircraft is coming in for a vertical landing aboard the USS Nassau (LHA-4) while conducting training operations in the Norwegian fjords. Quite likely one of the last photos of the squadron "in action" overseas.
