The 80FS (traditionally nicknamed the “Headhunters”, and since 1971 also the “Juvats”) flew the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon as a fighter squadron of the USAF, currently part of the 8th Operations Group of the 8th Fighter Wing, and stationed at Kunsan Air Base, Republic of Korea. The 80FS has served in combat operations in World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. This is the yellow version of the patch they created to commemorate their heritage and lineage. This patch was found in a small, Korean embroidery shop in VERY limited quantities, has the “in-theater-made” feel to it, and does not come with velcro attached.
