Officially Licensed US Navy VR-54 Revelers Patch — Fleet Logistics Support Squadron 54 C-130 Hercules Embroidered Patch
The Revelers — Navy Reserve C-130 crews keeping the fleet supplied from New Orleans.
Fleet Logistics Support Squadron 54 (VR-54), the "Revelers," operates the C-130T Hercules out of NAS JRB New Orleans, Louisiana, providing airlift and logistics support for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. VR-54 is a Navy Reserve squadron whose crews fly cargo, personnel, and priority supplies to fleet units around the world, ensuring that the materials needed to maintain combat readiness arrive when and where they're needed.
The C-130 Hercules is the most versatile military transport aircraft ever built, capable of operating from short, unimproved airstrips while carrying heavy cargo loads across intercontinental distances. VR-54's Revelers — named for the Mardi Gras spirit of their New Orleans home — fly the Hercules on missions that range from routine logistics runs to humanitarian relief operations and disaster response. The squadron's Reserve sailors balance their civilian careers with the demanding requirements of maintaining qualification in a four-engine tactical transport, ensuring they can answer the call whenever the fleet needs them. The Revelers bring New Orleans' unique culture and energy to the fleet logistics mission.
