The end of World War I saw Congress authorize 1,020 men for Marine Corps aviation and the establishment of permanent air stations at Quantico, Parris Island and San Diego. "

It was not until 3 May 1925 that the Marine Corps officially appeared in the Navy's Aeronautical Organization when Rear Admiral William A. Moffett, then Chief of the Navy's Bureau of Aeronautics, issued a directive officially authorizing three fighting squadrons.

The turning point for the long-term survival of Marine Air " On 7 December 1941, the day of the attack on Pearl Harbor, Marine Corps air units consisted of 13 flying squadrons and 230 aircraft.

World War II would see the Marine Corps' air arm expand rapidly and extensively. Because of the way the Pacific War unfolded, Marine Aviation was not able to achieve its 1939 mission of supporting the Fleet Marine Force at first. For the first two years of the war, the air arm spent most of its time protecting the fleet and land-based installations from attacks by enemy ships and aircraft.

This began to change after the Battle of Tarawa as the air support for ground troops flown by Navy pilots left much to be desired. After the battle, General Holland Smith recommended, "Marine aviators, thoroughly schooled in the principles of direct air support," should do the job.

During the course of the war, Marine Aviators were credited with shooting down 2,355 Japanese aircraft while losing 573 of their own aircraft in combat, they had 120 aces and earned 11 Medals of Honor. Also during this time, the Secretary of Defense for then President Harry S. Truman, Louis A. Johnson, attempted to eliminate Marine Corps aviation by transferring its air assets to other services, and even proposed to progressively eliminate the Marine Corps altogether in a series of budget cutbacks and decommissioning of forces

Great Bag!
I used this bag all over Europe this summer! It was so easy and convenient to have access to my wallet, sunscreen, sunglasses in one spot over my best. The bag was super cute and held a lot of items. The thick strap was really good for support and even held up during the really hot days. There are a few different pockets which is helpful as well. I recommend this bag! :)

Nice pink, bigger than expected
Color: Rose Red
Bigger than expected, I bought four my niece, she likes it and I think once she gets some items in it and break it in. It’s a nice shade of pink and I really like the strap.

Great for the price
I'm really happy with this bag, especially for the price. The two pockets are nice and large enough to fit my kindle, so I was excited about that. The card holders built in to the bag make it easy to just take the few card you need without bringing a whole wallet.

Perfect Size
Colors are spot on. This is my second one to own, I love the size because it’s not too big, not too small. I can carry one of these bags everyday for about a year before any wear starts to show. The strap is beautiful and I have gotten compliments on it a lot.

Favorite Bag
I LOVE this bag. the bag is super cute. I have a toddler and the bag is constantly getting thrown around and so far it has held up well. The material is thick and the strap is great. The only thing that would make it better would be an interchangeable strap to accessorize.
