Officially Licensed US Navy HS-2 Golden Falcons Patch — Cold War Sea King Legends
The Golden Falcons of HS-2 spent the Cold War hunting Soviet submarines from carrier decks — this patch honors that service.
Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron 2 (HS-2), the Golden Falcons, was a U.S. Navy helicopter squadron that operated the H-3 Sea King in the anti-submarine warfare, combat search and rescue, and utility roles. This embroidered patch commemorates HS-2's distinguished service as a carrier-based helicopter squadron, deploying with air wings aboard Atlantic and Pacific Fleet carriers. The Golden Falcons conducted countless ASW missions during the Cold War, when the threat from Soviet submarines was at its peak. Their aircrews flew demanding patrols over the open ocean, using dipping sonar and sonobuoys to hunt and track enemy submarines.
Perfect For: HS-2 Golden Falcons veterans, H-3 Sea King ASW crews, Cold War-era naval aviators, carrier air wing helicopter members, and Navy helicopter embroidered patch collectors.
