Redesignated Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 14 in 2013, the Chargers are assigned to Carrier Air Wing Nine and deploy aboard USS Abraham Lincoln. Their mission set spans anti-surface warfare, combat search and rescue, naval special warfare support, anti-ship missile defense, and vertical replenishment, making the squadron one of the most versatile rotary-wing units in the Pacific Fleet. The unit earned a Navy Unit Commendation during Operation Desert Storm in 1991 and built a reputation for humanitarian response that stretches back to a 1989 South China Sea rescue of 37 Vietnamese refugees — a record for a deployed helicopter squadron at the time. In late February 2026, operating off Abraham Lincoln as part of CVW-9, HSC-14 flew combat sorties during Operation Epic Fury, adding a confirmed combat engagement to a unit history that already spans Desert Storm, Operation Tomodachi humanitarian relief, and decades of forward-deployed Pacific service. The squadron's blue and gold colors and its Chargers identity anchor the design on this embroidered patch, which commemorates the Epic Fury engagement specifically and gives it a distinct place in any serious Navy aviation or HSC collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerfect for HSC-14 veterans and active aircrew, MH-60S Seahawk enthusiasts, CVW-9 and USS Abraham Lincoln alumni, Navy helicopter collectors, Operation Epic Fury commemorative displays, shadow boxes, cruise books, patch boards, and family members who want a tangible piece tied to a specific combat deployment rather than a generic squadron souvenir.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChargers heritage, stitched for the mission, the deployment, and the history that followed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military, Law Enforcement and Custom Patches by USMCinsignia.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45869292814445,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0742\/9831\/files\/890903CB_AF9E4E10.9987916A00000000.jpg?v=1789618776","url":"https:\/\/marinepatches.com\/products\/official-hsc-14-chargers-epic-fury-patch","provider":"MarinePatches.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
