Training Wing TW-4 Reservist "Hired Guns" NAS Corpus Christi PVC — Reserve Instructors at Corpus Christi
The Hired Guns of TW-4 are Reserve instructor pilots who bring real-world experience back to the training command.
Training Wing 4 (TW-4) at NAS Corpus Christi, Texas, conducts multi-engine and intermediate pilot training using the T-6 Texan II and T-44 Pegasus. This PVC patch honors the "Hired Guns" — the Reserve instructor pilots who supplement the active-duty instructor cadre. Reserve instructors at training wings bring invaluable real-world fleet experience back to the cockpit, giving students the benefit of operational wisdom alongside textbook training. NAS Corpus Christi has been a cornerstone of naval aviation training for decades, and the Hired Guns contribute essential depth to the training mission.
Perfect For: TW-4 Reserve instructor pilots, NAS Corpus Christi personnel, T-6 and T-44 instructors, training command reservists, and naval aviation PVC patch collectors.
Hired Guns — Reserve experience, active-duty training excellence.
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.
