VAW-120 Greyhawks "Shaggatha" Patch — Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron 120 Morale Embroidered Patch

Shaggatha rises — VAW-120's legendary morale mascot.

Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron 120 (VAW-120) "Greyhawks" is the United States Navy's Fleet Replacement Squadron (FRS) for the E-2 Hawkeye airborne early warning aircraft, based at Naval Air Station Norfolk, Virginia. This "Shaggatha" morale patch features the squadron's beloved unofficial mascot — a creative and humorous character that has become a legend within the Hawkeye community.

VAW-120 is where every E-2 Hawkeye pilot and naval flight officer in the Navy learns to operate the airborne early warning platform before joining a fleet squadron. The Greyhawks run an intensive training syllabus that transforms newly designated aviators and NFOs into fleet-ready E-2 aircrewmen, covering everything from basic aircraft systems to advanced battle management and tactical command and control. The "Shaggatha" character represents the irreverent, creative humor that thrives in training squadrons, where long hours, demanding instructors, and the pressure of learning a complex aircraft create the perfect environment for legendary morale characters to emerge.

This patch captures VAW-120's unique personality beyond the official squadron identity.

Perfect For: VAW-120 Greyhawks alumni, E-2 Hawkeye FRS graduates, Shaggatha fans, and naval aviation morale patch collectors.

Shaggatha lives — VAW-120 Greyhawks.
