Air America Patch
The airline that didn't exist — until everyone knew it did.
Air America was the CIA's covert airline, operating throughout Southeast Asia from the 1950s through 1975. Disguised as a civilian charter company, Air America flew missions that ranged from routine cargo transport to some of the most dangerous operations of the Vietnam War era — inserting operatives into denied territory, resupplying remote outposts in Laos, evacuating personnel under fire, and supporting the CIA's secret war in the Laotian highlands. Air America pilots and crew members were a mix of military veterans and civilians who flew into places that no official military unit could go, often without recognition or acknowledgment. This patch was originally produced for a reunion of Air America pilots and crew, preserving the memory of an organization whose full story is still being told.
Perfect For:
Air America veterans and their families, CIA aviation history enthusiasts, Vietnam War historians, covert operations collectors, and anyone fascinated by the secret air war in Southeast Asia.
The airline with no official history — and an unforgettable legacy.
If you want to swap patches on/off gear, choose hook & loop (velcro). If you’re attaching permanently to uniforms or fabric, choose sew-on. If you want quick application on compatible fabric, choose iron-on / heat seal (when offered). Backing options are shown on the page and update based on the variant you select.
Size is shown on the product page and updates with the variant you select (example: 3"). If you’re mounting on a hat or small panel, choose smaller sizes; for plate carriers and display boards, larger sizes fit better.
If the product is officially licensed, it will say “Officially Licensed” in the title and/or in the product details. If it doesn’t, it’s still a legitimate product—just not part of a licensed program.
Yes. If you see a note like “bulk reruns available,” that means we can support group orders or reruns. If you don’t see it, contact us with the unit/squadron and quantity and we’ll confirm options.
Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
