Root Explanation

Squadroned is derived from 'squadron' (from Middle French *esquadron*, meaning a small troop or a group of soldiers) and the suffix '-ed' (indicating a past action or state). The term 'squadroned' refers to being organized or arranged in a squadron, typically in a military context.

Memory Tip

Think of a 'squadron' as a small group of soldiers organized together, and the '-ed' shows that they have been arranged in that way.
