Flaming Eightballer PVC Patch
The Eightballers have been flying since 1956 — this throwback design brings the heat.
HSC-8 "Eightballers" is a U.S. Navy helicopter sea combat squadron based at NAS North Island, San Diego. Tracing its lineage to HS-8, established in 1956, the Eightballers have flown Sea Bats, Sea Kings, and Seahawks through Vietnam, Desert Shield, Enduring Freedom, and dozens of WESTPAC deployments. Now flying the MH-60S, HSC-8 executes anti-surface warfare, combat search and rescue, special operations support, and vertical replenishment as part of Carrier Air Wing 11. This flaming variant puts some fire behind the eight ball.
Perfect For:
HSC-8 and HS-8 veterans, Navy helicopter aircrew, Carrier Air Wing 11 personnel, Seahawk enthusiasts, and morale patch collectors.
Behind the eight ball — and on fire.
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.
