(Reproduction): The 19th Fighter Squadron is part of the Pacific Air Forces’ (PACAF) 15th Wing (15 WG) at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii. The squadron is one of the oldest in the USAF, its origins dating to 14 June 1917, being organized at Kelly Field, TX. It served overseas in France as part of the American Expeditionary Force during World War I. The squadron saw combat during World War II, and became part of the Tactical Air Command during the Cold War. Recently, they have transitioned from the F-16 Fighting Falcon to the F-22 Raptor aircraft conducting strategic attack, interdiction, suppression of enemy air defenses, as well as offensive and defensive counterair (air-to-air) missions. This is the blue/yellow version of their squadron patch and does not come with velcro attached.
