Officially Licensed USMC HRS/CH-19 Commemorative Sticker
The helicopter that pioneered Marine vertical envelopment — before anyone else believed it would work.
The Sikorsky HRS (CH-19 Chickasaw) was the Marine Corps' first operational transport helicopter, proving the concept of vertical envelopment during the Korean War. Marine HRS squadrons demonstrated that helicopters could move troops and supplies directly to the battlefield, bypassing roads and terrain that would slow conventional forces. This concept became the foundation of modern Marine assault support doctrine. This commemorative sticker honors the aircraft that started it all.
Perfect For:
Marine aviation historians, Korean War helicopter veterans, Popasmoke community members, and vintage USMC aviation sticker collectors.
Where Marine vertical envelopment began.
