Price: $9.99

This patch was created by VAQ-130, and I think it commemmorates their early years as VAW-13. This is the Det-31 patch for the WestPac '68 tour in Vietnam.

The Det numbers were the carrier hull number, so the Det patch chosen for this commemorative was aboard Bon Homme Richard for her 1968 WestPac cruise.
