Black Sheep Tend to Shore Flocks
e Ocean Air Support Squadron Puts Eyes in the Sky Over Ocean County
by Gordon Hesse
continued on page 42
U
nless you've witnessed a "fly over" at one of Ocean County's fairs, parades, or veteran
events, or seen them at a presentation at some other community activity, you might
never have heard of the Ocean Air Support Squadron (OASS). The squadron is, in a sense,
Ocean County's volunteer air wing. On summer weekends, you can see them (either of
two small aircraft) patrolling the coastline from Little Egg Harbor to Point Pleasant Beach
or possibly further inland cruising over the Pine Barrens as far west as Lakehurst.
