This is the blue, oval-shaped 2016 OIR cruise patch for CVN-75/VFA-143/CVW-7 showing a black scorpion over Iraq. It has the “gaggle” of squadron emblems around the edges and says “BIGGER BOMBS, MORE TONNAGE, LONGER LASTING” along the top with “EXTENZE” at the very top, and is “blue”, the same color as “that little blue pill”. Working with VFA-143, we bought ALL their older cruise patches to help their “Mess”. Very detailed patch, pretty neat idea of “breaking the glass”. This patch does not have velcro attached.
