Rocketman Patch

Custom "Rocketman" morale patch.

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time — Rocketman on the shoulder.

"Rocketman" is the morale callsign that's appeared on flight-suit shoulder patches across the U.S. military for decades — from rocket and missile community shops at Vandenberg, the U.S. Air Force ICBM force at Malmstrom, Minot, and F.E. Warren, to Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center pilots running missile profiles, MK-77 Hellfire and APKWS rocket-equipped helicopter squadrons, the HIMARS rocket batteries of the Marine Corps and Army artillery community, and even Strategic Communications Wing 1 E-6B aircrew with the Airborne Launch Control System. The pop-culture hook is, of course, Elton John and Bernie Taupin's 1972 hit "Rocketman (I Think It's Going to Be a Long, Long Time)" — a song so deeply embedded in American military aviation morale culture that it's been quoted in everything from astronaut launch playlists to ready-room walls. This patch puts the callsign on the suit, ready for any rocket-touching MOS or community: rocket fuel mixers, missile maintainers, ICBM crew dogs, light attack helo aircrew, HIMARS chiefs, JATO test pilots, or anyone whose deployment involves something with a propulsion system pointed at the sky. Long, long time, indeed.

Perfect For: Rocket and missile community service members across the Navy, Marine Corps, Army, Air Force, and Space Force, ICBM missileers at Malmstrom / Minot / F.E. Warren, HIMARS crews and Marine artillery rocket batteries, helicopter aircrew flying APKWS / Hellfire profiles, NAWS China Lake and NSAWC test pilots, Elton John fans in uniform, and rocket-themed morale patch collectors.

Rocketman — long, long time, ignition on, lift off.
