    II Marine Expeditionary Force   

    “Triple Nuts,” as this aircraft is called, was the first EA-6B Prowler delivered to Cherry Point 35 years ago on Feb. 17, 1977. It served the Marine Corps during a myriad of conflicts and is the only Prowler to serve exclusively in the Marine Corps. Marine leaders are currently planning for this historic aircraft to become a permanent display piece aboard the air station.
