Station Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Marines shoot the first EA6B Prowler of Marine Corps and its crew with water as a traditional wash-off after returning to Marine Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron 2 June 10. The first Marine Corps Prowler was in service for more than 34 years and during that time it flew more than 11,000 flight hours and was piloted by four VMAQ-2 Marines for its final flight. “This aircraft has been used by all the VMAQ squadrons aboard the base and finished up here with its final flight under the Q-2 logo,” said Lt. Col. Todd M. Caruso, the commanding officer of VMAQ-2. “We here at VMAQ-2 did everything we could to keep the history of that aircraft alive. We have used it for training and it has even been to Afghanistan.”
