**Officially Licensed USMC VMA(AW)-224 Fighting Bengals Sticker — Marine All-Weather Attack Squadron Vinyl Sticker**
The Fighting Bengals — all-weather A-6 Intruder attack Marines who owned the night over Vietnam and carried the tradition of Marine precision strike through decades of service.
VMA(AW)-224, the "Fighting Bengals," was originally commissioned as Marine Fighting Squadron 224 (VMF-224) on May 1, 1942. The squadron earned distinction flying F4F Wildcats and SBD Dauntlesses at Guadalcanal, then served through multiple redesignations as Marine aviation evolved. Transitioning to the A-6 Intruder and the all-weather attack mission, VMA(AW)-224 became one of the Marine Corps' premier night and all-weather strike squadrons. Based at MCAS Cherry Point, North Carolina, under MAG-14 and 2nd MAW, the Fighting Bengals deployed extensively throughout the Western Pacific and Mediterranean, providing the MAGTF commander with precision all-weather close air support and deep air support capability using the Intruder's sophisticated radar and weapons delivery systems.
