- VAW-77 abstract "Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron 77 (VAW-77) "Nightwolves" was an aviation unit of the United States Navy Reserve based at Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base New Orleans from 1995 to 2013. It comprised the U.S. Navy's only fully dedicated counter-narcotics squadron. VAW-77's beginnings go back to 1995, when the U.S. Congress created the reserve squadron as a result of the United States escalating war on illegal drug trafficking. VAW-77 received four specially modified E-2C Hawkeye airborne early warning aircraft optimized for counter-drug missions. As part of the Navy's post-Cold War role, VAW-77 flight crews patrolled the waters of the Caribbean in joint missions with the United States Coast Guard and other drug enforcement agencies in search of illegal aircraft and ships. The officers and enlisted members of VAW-77 were a mix of Selected Reservists and active Full Time Support (FTS) personnel. Because the squadron was a component of the Naval Reserve, a significant number of its men and women were Selected Reservists. They participated in the squadron's mission on a part-time basis because of their civilian commitments. The aircraft were serviced and maintained by Northrop Grumman civilian contractors who also deployed with the squadron.".
