Official HMH-772 Hustlers ITX 4-23 Patch — Desert Tested, Shitter Approved
When the Hustlers head to Twentynine Palms, the desert shakes.
HMH-772 "The Hustlers" brought their CH-53E Super Stallions to Integrated Training Exercise (ITX) 4-23 at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, California — the Corps' premier combined-arms live-fire training evolution. ITX is where Marine Air-Ground Task Force elements come together to rehearse the full spectrum of combat operations in the unforgiving Mojave Desert. For HMH-772, a reserve heavy-lift squadron out of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst under MAG-49, ITX represents the ultimate validation — proving that the Hustlers can seamlessly integrate with active-duty forces and deliver heavy-lift support under the most demanding conditions. The CH-53E "Shitter" — as its crews lovingly call it — is the backbone of Marine heavy lift, hauling everything from artillery pieces to vehicles to supplies across the battlespace. This ITX 4-23 patch commemorates the Hustlers earning their stripes in the sand.
Perfect For: HMH-772 Hustlers Marines, CH-53E Super Stallion crews and maintainers, ITX 4-23 participants, MCAGCC Twentynine Palms veterans, and anyone who survived the desert heat with a Shitter overhead.
