15 APR 1949, the "Beehive and Hornet" patch was adopted by Fighter Squadron ONE HUNDRED THIRTEEN (VF-113). This same patch was later used by Attack Squadron ONE HUNDRED THIRTEEN (VA-113).
25 MAR 1983, when VA-113 was redesignated Strike Fighter Squadron ONE HUNDRED THIRTEEN (VFA-113), the "Beehive and Hornet" patch was modified by adding a scroll containing the squadron designation.
