Naval Air Station San Diego, four squadrons joined to form Carrier Air Group Eleven (CVG-11). Bombing Squadron Eleven (VB-11), <a href="/wiki/VF-111" title="VF-111">Fighting Squadron Eleven (VF-11)</a>, Scouting Squadron Eleven (VS-11) and <a href="/wiki/VFA-115" title="VFA-115">Torpedo Squadron Eleven (VT-11)</a>. In late October the entire air group was sent to Hawaii. VB-11, VS-11 and VT-11 were stationed at NAS Barbers Point on Oahu and VF-11 was sent to NAS Maui. While at Maui, the pilots of VF-11 trained and enjoyed the hospitality of the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.navalaviationmuseum.org/attractions/aircraft-exhibits/item/?item=vontempskywall">von Tempsky</a> ranch. Boyd, Maria and Alexa von Tempsky made sure VF-11 had a place to relax when they were not flying. </p><p>In February 1943 the Air Group embarked on <a href="/wiki/USS_Altamaha_(CVE-18)" title="USS Altamaha (CVE-18)">USS <i>Altamaha</i></a> and <a href="/wiki/USS_Long_Island_(CVE-1)" title="USS Long Island (CVE-1)">USS <i>Long Island</i></a> en route to Nandi in the Fijian Islands. CVG-11 continued to train and fly simulated combat missions. By the time CVG-11 arrived in the Pacific combat zone only one aircraft carrier was operational. This meant the entire air group would be land based at Guadalcanal. </p><p>On 25 April 1943 CVG-11 arrived at <a href="/wiki/Guadalcanal_Campaign" class="mw-redirect" title="Guadalcanal Campaign">Guadalcanal</a>. VF-11 would fly from Lunga Point, known as "Fighter One." The pilots of VF-11 would set out on escort missions providing cover for the Bombing and Torpedo Squadrons. In addition, the "Sundowners" as VF-11 is known, searched for and destroyed Japanese aircraft operating in the region. It was during this time that VS-11 was re-designated to VB-21. The remainder of the air group (VB-11, VB-21 & VT-11) would fly from Henderson Field. The bomber and torpedo planes conducted patrol, search, spotting, strike, and night mine-laying operations. </p><p>On 8 June 1943 the Air Group suffered a great loss. The men of VT-11 were granted a leave to Australia. While leaving New Caledonia, one of the three transport planes crashed killing all 24 men on board. Included in the casualties were Air Group Commander Weldon L. Hamilton and 16 pilots and aircrew from VT-11. </p><p>On 16 June 1943 twenty eight pilots of VF-11 engaged an estimated 120 Japanese planes and shot down 31. On 1 August 1943 CVG-11 left Guadalcanal and boarded USS <i>Chenango</i>, USS <i>St. Louis</i> and USS <i>Honolulu</i>. They arrived back at NAS Alameda two weeks later. Upon return to the US, CVG-11 trained for their next assignment: carrier operations. </p><p>Three air groups flew into combat on board <a href="/wiki/USS_Hornet_(CV-12)" title="USS Hornet (CV-12)">USS <i>Hornet</i></a> during World War II. Air Group Eleven replaced Air Group Two on 29 September 1944. While on board USS <i>Hornet</i>, CVG-11 attacked targets on Okinawa, Formosa, the Philippines, French Indo China and Hong Kong. The Air Group was tested daily by threat of kamikaze attacks against the ship, foul weather and intense anti-aircraft fire over the intended targets. The pilots of VF-11 were most proud of the fact that no VB-11 or VT-11 aircraft were lost to enemy fighter planes. Their top ace was <a href="/wiki/Charles_R._Stimpson" title="Charles R. Stimpson">Charles R. Stimpson</a> with 16 victories. By the end of January 1945 the pilots and aircrews of Air Group Eleven claimed the following: 105 enemy planes shot down, 272 planes destroyed on the ground, over 100,000 tons of enemy shipping sunk, and over 100 Japanese ships damaged. These great accomplishments did not come without a price. In four months of flying. CVG-11 lost over 50 aircraft and had more than 60 men killed, missing-in-action or wounded. Air Group Eleven was replaced by Air Group Seventeen on 1 February 1945. They arrived back in Alameda on 24 February 1945. For these operations, CVG-11 was awarded the <a href="/wiki/Presidential_Unit_Citation_(United_States)" title="Presidential Unit Citation (United States)">Presidential Unit Citation</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>An exhibit honoring Carrier Air Group Eleven (CVG-11) is on board the <a href="/wiki/USS_Hornet_Museum" class="mw-redirect" title="USS Hornet Museum">USS <i>Hornet</i> Museum</a> in Alameda, California.

CVW-11 flew the first Offensive Missions against North Vietnam in the spring of 1964, also experiencing the first losses of U.S. Navy aircraft; LT Charles Klusman was later rescued in August 1964 and returned to San Diego in September. In 1965, CVW-11 attached squadrons received new aircraft, such as the <a href="/wiki/RA-5C_Vigilante" class="mw-redirect" title="RA-5C Vigilante">RA-5C Vigilante</a>, <a href="/wiki/A-6_Intruder" class="mw-redirect" title="A-6 Intruder">A-6 Intruder</a>, <a href="/wiki/F-8_Crusader" class="mw-redirect" title="F-8 Crusader">F-8 Crusader</a> and the <a href="/wiki/E-2_Hawkeye" class="mw-redirect" title="E-2 Hawkeye">E-2 Hawkeye</a>.

In November 1966, CVW-11 and USS <i>Kitty Hawk</i> were awarded the <a href="/wiki/Navy_Unit_Commendation" title="Navy Unit Commendation">Navy Unit Commendation</a> for their actions during their deployment to the region. CVW-11 deployed for a 1966 to 1967 cruise to Asia, which earned them another Navy Unit Commendation in August 1967. <i>Kitty Hawk</i> and CVW-11 became the first battle group to be awarded the <a href="/wiki/Presidential_Unit_Citation_(United_States)" title="Presidential Unit Citation (United States)">Presidential Unit Citation</a> for performance during the Vietnam War, the citation was approved during operations between December 1966 through June 1968. </p><p>CVW-11 set numerous records for the Vietnam War, including a 61-day line period, which was the longest for the war. Prior to the limited bombing announcement, CVW-11 bombed targets in <a href="/wiki/North_Vietnam" title="North Vietnam">North Vietnam</a>, striking enemy power plants, rail yards and lines of transports and communications. CVW-11's sustained presence in the region was instrumental in the defense of <a href="/wiki/Khe_Sanh" title="Khe Sanh">Khe Sanh</a>. CVW-11 broke all records for combat sorties flown and ordnance dropped during its sixth WESTPAC deployment during November 1970 and July 1971, although it was short lived as the air wing broke its own record during the following deployment in 1972 under command of CAPT Doug McCrimmon, as they were deployed due to the Communist offensive, where CVW-11 deployed 107 aircraft, the largest Air Wing ever under the new CV Air Wing concept, which included tactical aircraft and anti-submarine aircraft on the same carrier. The 1973–1974 deployment was highlighted by an air power demonstration for the <a href="/wiki/Mohammad_Reza_Pahlavi" title="Mohammad Reza Pahlavi">Shah of Iran</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Chairman_of_the_Joint_Chiefs_of_Staff" title="Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff">Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff</a> while deployed to the Indian Ocean. </p><p>During the 1975 deployment, CVW-11 and <i>Kitty Hawk</i> deployed for their first non-combat cruise in nine years, which followed with two more deployments in 1975 and 1977.
