Grenada Pop-A-Smoke Patch — Marine Helicopter Association Operation Urgent Fury Embroidered Patch
Pop-A-Smoke Grenada — honoring Marine rotary-wing veterans of Operation Urgent Fury.
This Pop-A-Smoke patch honors Marine helicopter aircrew who served during Operation Urgent Fury in Grenada in October 1983. Marine helicopters provided assault transport, close air support, and evacuation during the U.S. intervention to rescue American medical students and restore order on the Caribbean island nation. Marine CH-46s, CH-53s, UH-1s, and AH-1 Cobras all participated in the brief but intense operation, demonstrating the Marine Corps' ability to project power from the sea with rotary-wing aviation.
Perfect For:
Grenada/Operation Urgent Fury Marine helicopter veterans, Pop-A-Smoke association members, 1983 Grenada operation historians, and Caribbean operations aviation patch collectors.
Pop-A-Smoke. Grenada. Urgent Fury.
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.
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.
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.
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.
