Pretty sure VQ-1 built a squadron bar ~20 or so years ago, it was there the last time I went through a while ago. They could do that though unlike out VP brethren because some portion of the squadron is always home.

They're still at the 8am Tee Time after mids. Try harder to make fun of RPA guys. You suck.

VMFA 232 has a fire truck with hornet split tails welded on
VMFA 225 has a hearse but it seems to be of dubious provenance since it says 'Death dealers' but the squadron is the Vikings...

also, to give a more recent report on TW2 and TW4, as well as a fleet marine corps sqdn...
TW4 - sort of a bar that only IPs used in VT-27. maybe similar deal in VT-28. studs basically did not partake. can't speak for VT-31 or -35.
TW2 - both VT-21 and VT-22 had 'heritage rooms' that were very small bars. beers were consumed in the ready room after hours or after a late flight. heritage room was opened up in fairly limited instances. the O club was actually pretty popular in kingsville but that was mostly because Kingsville as a town is an awful place and the command ingeniously paid some local young adult to ferry people to and from the O club back to their houses to prevent DUI shenanigans. King Kat was well and alive when I was there ~2 years ago.
seems about 50/50 whether squadrons have bars. my fleet squadron has a bar that's also a heritage room. the neighboring fleet squadron and frs do not. vmfat 101 has a pretty good bar and vmfa-314 at least used to, as I think did 232 and 323. can't speak for beaufort squadrons or iwakuni squadrons - never been. also no idea what helos or ospreys do, but haven't seen any in the HMH and VMM spaces i've been in.
