History
Two distinct squadrons have been designated VF-102. The first VF-102 was established on 1 May 1952 flying the FG-1D and F9F-5. From November 1953 to September 1954, the squadron completed a world cruise aboard USS Tarawa (CV-40), visiting 10 foreign countries and transiting the Suez and Panama Canals. On 1 July 1955, VF-102 was redesignated VA-36 and moved from Naval Air Station Cecil Field to Naval Air Station Jacksonville.
The second VF-102 was established in 1955, was eventually redesignated as VFA-102, and is the subject of the remainder of this article.
1950s
The second Fighter Squadron 102 (VF-102), was established as VA-36 on 1 July 1955, and was immediately redesignated VF-102 on the same day (at the time, squadron designations were associated with their assigned airwing). The squadron was based at NAS Jacksonville flying the F2H Banshee. The Diamondbacks inaugural cruise took place aboard the USS Randolph in July 1956. After returning from deployment, the squadron transitioned to the F4D Skyray. In addition to four 20 mm internal cannons, the Skyray carried the new AIM-9 Sidewinder missile.

Cold Sweat
by: FiveChorus:
Girl I get dat cold sweat
Creepin' up on me
I ache when you shake it
Girl I'm just a freak
Yeah, you set dat cold sweat
Trippin' on me
Burnin' with the fever
Girl you're killing me
Girl you're kinda freaky
Got something 'bout your smile
And when you bounce it up and down
I can't believe my eyes
I got to give you respect
Cos you know how to tease
Keep on walking I'll keep talkin'
You would not believe
Bridge:
What I would do
With a girl like you
Keep your body rockin'
I ain't gonna stop I just want you
And you know
It's shockin' when you rock it
I'm a sick, sick man cos
(Chorus)
Girl I'm just a freak
In need of therapy
I count the ounce in every bounce
And I just want to feast
I love the way you work it
I love the way you grind
Ya got da funk in every pump
If you could read my mind
Bridge
(Chorus)
Down
You're burnin' me down (x3)
I love the way shake now
Love the way you break now
Keep it comin' baby
I don't wanna hesitate now
You got me hooked every look makes me freeze
180 degrees you make me buckle at my knees
Crazy rump shaker sexy move maker
Baby bring it on
Better sooner than later
I feel a cold sweat creepin' up on me
We gotta get it on
Tell me what it's gonna be
(Bridge)
(Chorus until fade)
