Throughout the years VMFA(AW)-332 has distinguished itself as being one of the premier squadrons in the U.S.Marine Corps. Their impressive record is illustrated by the squadron safety record: 60,000 hours of mishap free flying over 16 years, something few squadrons have ever been able to accomplish.
