This is a Subset from the Squadron list that shows the color codes used to identify what squadron was in the wing.
This first list shows the corresponding colors that match the Color with the Squadron Designation and the Nose Modex. (in other words, the way the system was supposed to work)
Color Wing....Correctly Matched to System
Red--------------------VF-31.....D-9874b.....AC-100.....F-4B
Orange-Yellow----------VF-92.....D-9602b.....NG-205.....F-4J
Light Blue-------------VA-83.....D-9699e.....AJ-301.....A4D-2
International Orange---VA-144.....K-2101c.....NK-408.....A-4C
Light Green------------VA-135.....S-9950a.....AE-501.....AD-6
Black------------------VA-36.....D-9672a.....AC-611.....A-4C
When there was a seventh squadron in the Wing they used the Maroon (which is not the color people think of), This squadron number never matched the system, because when it was designed, parent wings only had six squadron designations in them.
Maroon-----------------VA-36.....S-9975a.....NG-711.....A-4C
CAG--------------------VA-164.....D-9677e.....AH-400.....A-4B...This CAG bird is in here just to show off an example of those markings
A sample wing with the colors, numbers and designations all mixed up. In other words, the way the system looked from the late Sixties until now.
100-----VF-213.....D-9729a.....NH-100.....F-4J.....Red trim, squadron designation and air wing don't match system
200-----VF-103.....D-9789b.....AC-200.....F-4J.....Yellow trim, squadron designation and air wing don't match system
300-----VA-146.....D-9656g.....NG-301.....A-7E.....Blue trim, squadron designation and air wing don't match system
400-----VA-105.....D-9542b.....AC-402.....A-7E.....Green trim, should be Orange, squadron designation and air wing don't match system
500-----VA-196.....K-2222a.....NK-522.....KA-6D....Orange trim, should be Green, squadron designation and air wing don't match system
