Officially Licensed US Navy USS Warrior (MCM-10) Patch — Avenger-Class Mine Countermeasures Ship USS Warrior Sasebo Embroidered Patch
Forward-deployed mine warfare in the 7th Fleet — USS Warrior MCM-10, on the line in Sasebo.
USS Warrior (MCM-10) is the tenth ship of the Avenger class of mine countermeasures ships and the first US Navy ship to bear the name. Her keel was laid down on September 25, 1989 at Peterson Builders in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin, she was launched on December 8, 1990, and she was commissioned on April 3, 1993. Across more than three decades of service Warrior has operated from three homeports — originally Naval Station Ingleside, Texas; then Naval Base San Diego, California beginning April 17, 2009 following the closure of Ingleside; and currently Sasebo, Japan, where she has been forward-deployed since being transported via heavy-lift ship on March 2, 2013 to replace USS Guardian (MCM-5). On her February 24, 1995 maiden deployment Warrior departed Ingleside for a six-month deployment to US 6th Fleet, and her subsequent operational record includes Joint Task Force Exercise 02-1 in 2002, PANAMAX 06 off Panama in 2006, a seven-month deployment beginning June 2012 from Manama, Bahrain, and continuous routine operations and port visits across the US 7th Fleet area of operations including a port visit to Kobe, Japan in March 2025. As an Avenger-class MCM, Warrior's primary mission is to find, classify, and destroy moored and bottom mines threatening US and allied freedom of navigation — a mission as old as naval warfare and as critical as ever in the contested waters of the Indo-Pacific.
Perfect For: USS Warrior MCM-10 sailors, chiefs, and officers, Avenger-class mine countermeasures ship community, mine warfare (MIW) and explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) personnel, Sasebo Japan and forward-deployed naval forces (FDNF) families, Naval Station Ingleside Texas and San Diego homeport veterans, US 7th Fleet personnel, and US Navy mine warfare community supporters.
