The VS-37 Sawbucks, a renowned anti-submarine squadron, originally formed during World War II. Initially, they focused on scouting and reconnaissance. Over time, they evolved, adapting their missions to counter new threats. Their expertise in anti-submarine warfare became pivotal during the Cold War era.As technology advanced, so did the Sawbucks. They transitioned from propeller-driven aircraft to more sophisticated jets. This change significantly enhanced their operational capabilities. Consequently, their role expanded to include surveillance and electronic warfare, making them more versatile.

Throughout their service, the Sawbucks participated in numerous deployments. They were often deployed to tense regions, where their skills were crucial for naval operations. Their presence not only deterred adversaries but also protected allied naval forces.

In the late 20th century, the Sawbucks faced new challenges. The emergence of stealthier submarines required them to adapt once again. They incorporated new tactics and technology, ensuring they remained ahead of potential threats.

Finally, after decades of distinguished service, the VS-37 Sawbucks were decommissioned. However, their legacy continues to inspire current and future naval aviation squadrons. Their history is a testament to adaptability and excellence in naval aviation.
