US Army E Co 82nd ARTY Woodpeckers Patch
The Woodpeckers kept pecking — and the enemy kept ducking.
E Company, 82nd Artillery (Aviation) was one of the many specialized aviation units that supported ground operations during the Vietnam War. Known by their call sign "Woodpeckers," the unit flew UH-1 Hueys and AH-1 Cobras in support of combat operations, providing aerial fire support, reconnaissance, and troop transport across the Vietnamese countryside. Artillery aviation units like the 82nd played a critical role in the war, bridging the gap between traditional field artillery and the emerging dominance of rotary-wing aviation on the modern battlefield. The Woodpeckers patch captures the spirit of a unit that kept hammering the enemy relentlessly.
Perfect For:
E Company 82nd Artillery veterans, Vietnam-era Army aviation personnel, Cobra and Huey crew members, and collectors of Vietnam War unit insignia.
For the Woodpeckers who never stopped hammering.
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.
