Re: VGF
Note also that the squadron numbers matched the carrier hull number. This was a prewar practice from the late 30s. The same is true for the fleet carriers, CV-2 to CV-8. This practice worked in peacetime, and continued in wartime until late in 1942, when the Japanese minimized the number of available hulls, and the Americans started to maximize the number of squadrons.
Enjoy!
