This training cycle also featured the off-station debut of the 62d Airlift Squadron’s new GOONEY call sign, a nod to the squadron’s heritage aircraft, the C-47 Skytrain, affectionately nicknamed the “Gooney Bird.” For the Airmen of the 62d AS, the nickname “Gooney Bird,” which comes from the albatross, a seabird known for its endurance and ability to fly great distances, represents a linkage to the squadron’s 80-year history of airlift.
