| To conduct a maritime war in distant seas the Admiralty had to be able to transport naval stores to squadrons operating from remote stations. |
| All of us stamp our right foot and salute, before breaking ranks to go to our squadrons. |
| Her squadrons were kept busy flying combat air patrols over inshore forces, strafing mine-laying junks, and supporting troops ashore. |
| Twelve fighter craft made up one squadron, and there were six squadrons in a wing. |
| Dense schools of fusiliers swarm past, followed by squadrons of predators like big-eye trevally, mackerel and rainbow runners. |
| Thus, it was anticipated that a fighter force of 50 squadrons engaged in active operations would suffer wastage of 1,000 aircraft a month. |
