squadron

squadron: [16] A squadron is etymologically a ‘square’. The current sense ‘military group’ comes from an earlier ‘square formation of troops’. The word was borrowed from Italian squadrone, a derivative of squadra ‘square’, which comes from the same source as English square. The related squad [17] comes from French escouade, an alteration of escadre, which was acquired from Italian squadra.
=> quarter, square
