Official HT-28 Hellions Leather Squadron Patch — US Navy Helicopter Training Squadron Leather Patch
Every Navy and Marine Corps helicopter pilot passes through the training pipeline — and HT-28 is where they earn their rotary-wing sea legs.
Helicopter Training Squadron 28 (HT-28), the "Hellions," is based at NAS Whiting Field, Florida, under Training Air Wing Five. The squadron trains student naval aviators in the TH-73A Thrasher — the Navy's newest training helicopter replacing the venerable TH-57 Sea Ranger. HT-28 produces combat-ready helicopter pilots for the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard, making it one of the most critical links in the naval aviation training pipeline.
• Premium leather patch with detailed squadron design
• Rich, durable leather construction
• Hook & loop or sew-on backing for flight jackets and gear
• Classic heritage aesthetic
• Standard sizing for squadron placement
Perfect For:
HT-28 instructors and students, NAS Whiting Field personnel, TH-73A Thrasher aviators, rotary-wing training pipeline alumni, and naval aviation leather patch collectors. A premium tribute to where helicopter careers begin.
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.
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.
Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
