1965-1965, Basic Naval Aviation Officer (BNAO) Course (Corpus Christi, Texas, United States)
Description
Nickname Banana School In 1960, Training Squadron TEN (VT-10) was established as a division of the Training Department of NAS Pensacola and was known as the Basic Naval Aviation Officers (BNAO) School. It was strictly a ground training operation until the school was assigned nine UC-45J "Navigators" and six T-2A "Buckeyes" in February 1962. The T-2As were soon replaced with nine T-1A "Sea Star" aircraft. In 1965, Naval Aviation Observers were re-designated as Naval Flight Officers (NFOs) and on January 15, 1968, BNAO School was officially commissioned as VT-10.
