Product Description

Officially Licensed USMC HMM-162 Golden Eagles Patch — Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron CH-46 Sea Knight Embroidered Patch

The Golden Eagles — the squadron that made amphibious warfare history with the first ship-to-shore helicopter assault.

HMM-162 "Golden Eagles" made history during Operation Lex Baker I in 1952, conducting the first large-scale ship-to-shore helicopter movement when they airlifted a combat-equipped company from the USS Rendova to Camp Pendleton. The Golden Eagles went on to deploy to Vietnam, Beirut (providing support after the 1983 barracks bombing), Liberia (evacuating 2,600+ nationals during Operation Sharp Edge), Iraq, and Haiti. HMM-162 operated the CH-46 Sea Knight before transitioning to the MV-22B Osprey and redesignating as VMM-162.

Perfect For:
HMM-162 and VMM-162 Golden Eagles past and present, CH-46 Sea Knight veterans, Marine medium helicopter aviation historians, and USMC legacy squadron patch collectors.

Golden Eagles. First ship-to-shore.

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.
