USS West Virginia BB-48 Patch — Colorado-Class Battleship Embroidered Patch
She rose from Pearl Harbor and fought to Tokyo Bay.
USS West Virginia (BB-48) was a Colorado-class battleship of the United States Navy that earned a place in history through both tragedy and triumph. On December 7, 1941, West Virginia was among the battleships moored along Battleship Row at Pearl Harbor when the Japanese attacked. Hit by multiple torpedoes and bombs, she sank at her berth — but West Virginia's story was far from over.
After being raised, repaired, and modernized, USS West Virginia returned to the fight with a vengeance. The rebuilt battleship participated in some of the most significant naval engagements of the Pacific War, including the Battle of Leyte Gulf in October 1944, where she helped annihilate a Japanese surface force in the Battle of Surigao Strait — the last battleship-versus-battleship engagement in naval history. West Virginia's 16-inch guns hammered Japanese positions at Iwo Jima and Okinawa, providing devastating fire support for the Marines storming those bloody shores. From the ashes of Pearl Harbor to the shores of Japan, BB-48's resurrection symbolized America's determination to win the war.
This patch honors one of the most remarkable warships in American naval history.
Perfect For: USS West Virginia BB-48 veterans and descendants, Pearl Harbor history enthusiasts, World War II battleship collectors, and naval heritage fans.

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.
