Product Description

Official HMLA-773 Det A Red Dogs Halloween Patches — Trick or Treat, Close Air Support Edition

Because even reserve Cobras celebrate Halloween — and the Red Dogs do it with fangs out.

HMLA-773, the Red Dogs, is a Marine Reserve Light Attack Helicopter Squadron flying the AH-1Z Viper and UH-1Y Venom, split between Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, New Jersey, and NAS JRB New Orleans. The Red Dogs were the first reserve helicopter squadron activated for combat during Desert Storm in 1990, deployed to Afghanistan along the Pakistan border in 2003, and were among the first military units to respond to Hurricane Katrina in their own backyard of New Orleans. Det A, based in Belle Chasse, Louisiana, carries that same fighting spirit — and apparently celebrates Halloween with appropriately terrifying morale patches.

Perfect For: HMLA-773 Det A Marines, Red Dogs alumni, 4th MAW reservists, and anyone who believes attack helicopters and Halloween are a natural combination.

The Red Dogs don't need costumes to be scary — but they'll wear the patch anyway.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right backing?

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.

What size is this item?

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.

Are these Officially Licensed?

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.

Do you offer bulk or reruns for units/squadrons?

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.

Can you make a custom patch / name tag / lanyard / apparel?

Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
