**USMC Skid Kids Sticker**
Skid kids don't need a runway, a carrier deck, or a flat piece of ground. Huey and Cobra crews live in the dirt, fly low, and bring the pain. This sticker is for the Marines who chose skids over wheels.
In Marine Corps aviation, "Skid Kids" is the affectionate term for pilots and aircrew who fly skid-equipped helicopters—the UH-1Y Venom and AH-1Z Viper. These light attack and utility helicopters operate from austere forward bases, ship decks, and confined zones where larger aircraft can't go, providing close air support, escort, armed reconnaissance, and casualty evacuation at the tip of the spear.
