Official VAQ-140 Eagles JOPA Shoulder Patch — Patriots of the Ready Room

The JOs of VAQ-140 formed their own Eagles JOPA — because junior officers need solidarity, especially in the electronic attack community.

This Junior Officer's Protection Association (JOPA) patch from Electronic Attack Squadron 140 (VAQ-140), the Patriots, celebrates the beloved naval aviation tradition of junior officers creating their own mock organizations. VAQ-140 operates the EA-18G Growler from NAS Whidbey Island, Washington, conducting electronic warfare, suppression of enemy air defenses, and electronic surveillance. The Eagles JOPA reflects the tight-knit culture among junior officers who share the unique bond of flying Growlers, standing duty, and navigating the challenges of early-career naval aviation together. JOPA patches are prized collectors' items that capture a specific era and crew.

Perfect For: VAQ-140 Patriots junior officers, EA-18G Growler pilots and EWOs, NAS Whidbey Island aviators, JOPA culture fans, and naval aviation humor collectors.

Eagles JOPA — protecting the JOs of VAQ-140.
