History 

Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron TWO ONE, formerly the Gunbearers of HC-11, has been the cornerstone for West Coast Fleet Logistics Support since the original squadron was established on October 1, 1977 at Naval Air Station North Island, San Diego, California. In April 2005, the “Gunbearers” of HC-11 were redesignated as the “Blackjacks” of HSC-21, continuing a tradition of excellence to support the Navy’s future helicopter fleet organization.
