Product Description

HMLA-269 Gunrunners 24th MEU Skid Det Flightline Qual Patches — Cobra and Huey Quals on the MEU

The Gunrunners' skid det earned their flightline quals on the 24th MEU — maintaining Cobras and Venoms at sea.

Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 269 (HMLA-269), the Gunrunners, deployed a skid detachment with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit. These flightline qualification patches recognize the maintainers — CDIs, CDQs, and qualified plane captains — who kept AH-1Z Vipers and UH-1Y Venoms flying from amphibious ship flight decks. Flightline qual patches on a MEU deployment carry extra significance because maintaining aircraft at sea, in confined spaces with salt air corrosion, is exponentially harder than shore-based maintenance. The Gunrunners' maintenance Marines proved their proficiency under the most demanding conditions.

Perfect For: HMLA-269 Gunrunners MEU deployers, 24th MEU skid det maintainers, flightline qualification earners, and USMC helicopter qualification patch collectors.

Gunrunners skid det — qualified on the MEU flight deck.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right backing?

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.

What size is this item?

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.

Are these Officially Licensed?

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.

Do you offer bulk or reruns for units/squadrons?

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.

Can you make a custom patch / name tag / lanyard / apparel?

Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
