| | | The pictures below show larger front and back views of this United States Air Force Fighter Wing Atlantic NAS Oceana Virginia Beach Advertising Souvenir Throw Blanket. The blanket features an F-14 Tomcat fighter and all 14 Tomcat squadrons that were stationed on the United States East Coast, at NAS OCEANA, Virginia Beach. The blanket is not dated and the year that it was made is unknown. We have been told that the Tomcats were decommissioned in 2006. The remainder of the squadrons have since transitioned to the F/A-18E/F Rhino. Only a limited number of these F-14 blankets were produced and sold. The blanket has a sewn cloth tag with washing instructions. The fringe all around the edges show how many different color threads were woven in this nice warm blanket. It has a United Styes jet aircraft and (14) different squadron insignias or emblems, and it is marked as follows: FIGHTER WING ATLANTIC NAS OCEANA, VIRGINIA BEACH GRIM REAPERS VF -101 FIGHTING 31 (with Felix the Cat cartoon) VF – 213 BOUNTY HUNTERS – FIGHTING TWO FLIGHT WING – 32 SANS REPROACHE – FIGHTING 143 FIGHTING 103 (skull & crossed bones) TOP HATTERS – FIGHTING 14 BLACK ACES - 41 BLACK KNIGHTS – ONE FIVE FOUR CHECKMATE VF – 211 SWATSLANT STRIKE WEAPONS TACTICS SCHOOL DIAMONDBACKS VF -102 THE RED RIPPERS (on corner tag) MILL STREET DESIGN FROM WE LOVE COUNTRY 100% COTTON CRAFTED WITH PRIDE IN THE U.S.A.
