Official HSL-3 Seawolf Weapons School Patch - Helicopter Anti-Submarine Light Squadron community Seawolf Weapons and Tactics Instructor program embroidered patch, honoring the lineage of HA(L)-3 and the graduate-level rotary wing weapons school that carries the Seawolf name forward.

Seawolf call sign, weapons school discipline, and the most decorated squadron in naval aviation history — all in one embroidered piece.

The Seawolf name traces directly to HA(L)-3, the all-volunteer Navy Helicopter Attack (Light) Squadron commissioned on April 1, 1967, in South Vietnam. Flying UH-1 Hueys over the Mekong Delta in support of SEAL teams, river patrol boats, and Mobile Riverine Forces, the original Seawolves flew more than 120,000 combat missions and became the most highly decorated squadron in naval aviation history. That legacy did not end with the squadron's disestablishment in 1972. The HSL community later established a Weapons and Tactics Unit to meet the growing demand for armed helicopter training, and the SEAWOLF course — an intensive eight-week graduate-level certification run through the Naval Aviation Warfighting Development Center at NAS Fallon — was named in direct tribute to HA(L)-3. Every Seahawk Weapons and Tactics Instructor who earns the SEAWOLF designation carries that Vietnam-era call sign into modern anti-submarine warfare, surface surveillance, and maritime strike operations. This embroidered patch marks that unbroken chain from the Mekong Delta to the flight lines of today's rotary wing weapons school community.

Perfect For: Navy helicopter veterans, HSL and HSM aircrew, SWTI graduates, NAWDC alumni, NAS Fallon instructors, Seahawk weapons school collectors, Vietnam-era naval aviation historians, HA(L)-3 Seawolf descendants, shadow box displays, cruise book collections, reunion gifts, and anyone building a serious Navy rotary wing patch collection that honors both the original Seawolves and the modern weapons school tradition they inspired.

Seawolf heritage, stitched for the crews who carry the call sign from the Delta to the fleet.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.
