Officially Licensed US Navy HS-3 Tridents Patch — Neptune's Spear in Thread
HS-3's trident insignia — the weapon of the sea god — embroidered for the Marines who mastered the undersea domain.
Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron 3 (HS-3), the Tridents, operated the H-3 Sea King in the anti-submarine warfare and combat search and rescue roles as part of East Coast carrier air wings. This embroidered patch showcases the Tridents' iconic insignia in full detail. The trident symbolized the squadron's dominion over the undersea warfare environment, and HS-3's crews wielded that weapon with skill and precision across decades of Atlantic and Mediterranean deployments. The Tridents were among the most experienced ASW helicopter squadrons in the Navy.
Perfect For: HS-3 Tridents veterans, H-3 Sea King ASW pilots and aircrew, East Coast carrier air wing members, undersea warfare enthusiasts, and Navy helicopter embroidered patch collectors.
Tridents — Neptune's weapon, carried by the best.
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.
