Hmm, lets go a bit deeper here. What about former F-15E units? Before moving to SJAFB Strike Eagle training was at Luke AFB, AZ. I only know of one squadron there and it was the 555th (Triple Nickel/Eagles) When it moved to SJAFB it became the 333d (Lancers) which used to be an A-10 training squadron based at Davis Monthan AFB, AZ. The 555th is not an F-16 squadron stationed at Aviono AB, Italy. Hmm an F-16 squadron called the Eagles, interesting.

Launcher, thanks for the info! The article deals with current, active F-15E squadrons (maybe it's not emphasized enough), former F-15E squadrons are not listed here.
We do have an article about F-15E Tail Codes however, you can find references to the squadrons you mentioned.
Anyway, due to your feedback, I modified the article to emphasize that it deals with active squadrons. Thanks!

Re:F-15E Units 1 Year ago Karma: 3
No problem, just adding some of my meagre knowledge to the soup. I just wanted to make a stink about the 555th eagles being a F-16 sq now. I've been told that ops guys down there don't like the money nicknames: i.e. 555th = triple nickel and 510th = five & dime. Kinda like when a squadron with a color of yellow being called "gold". Sorry if I'm getting off target.

Thanks, any help is welcome (I still need to work through your other posts - updating articles, digging up stuff, etc.).
About the name of the 555th, I think Triple Nickel is a way cool name.
