Swiss Staffel 6 "Ducks" was created in 1925. Staffel 6's first unit badge was a six-pointed star with a witch riding a broom but in 1940 the badge became a marching duck carrying a Halberd (two-handed pole weapon or staff). With the arrival of the Northrop F-5E in 1983 training moved to Payerne AB and became the home of Staffel 6 with pilots from the French speaking area of Switzerland. Along with Staffels 8, 11, 17, 18 and 19 F-5E J-3033 became 6 Squadron's aircraft to receive a permanent squadron paint scheme.
