Official VQ-3 Ironmen Halloween Patch — US Navy Fleet Air Reconnaissance Squadron Holiday Embroidered Patch
The Ironmen celebrate Halloween — strategic communications never take a holiday.
Fleet Air Reconnaissance Squadron 3 (VQ-3) "Ironmen" operates the E-6B Mercury, the U.S. Navy's airborne command post and communications relay platform that provides the critical survivable communication link to the nation's nuclear submarine fleet. VQ-3 is part of the Take Charge and Move Out (TACAMO) community, ensuring that national command authority can communicate launch orders to ballistic missile submarines even if ground-based systems are destroyed. This Halloween patch adds seasonal flair to one of the Navy's most strategically vital squadrons.
Perfect For:
VQ-3 Ironmen personnel, E-6B Mercury aircrew, TACAMO community members, strategic communications specialists, and Halloween seasonal patch collectors.
Ironmen. Happy Halloween. TACAMO.
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.
