This is the patch created for VF-14 / VF-32 for their participation in operations in the Mediterranean in 1989. On 4 January 1989, two Grumman F-14A Tomcats of the United States Navy shot down two Libyan-operated Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23ML Flogger-G which the American aircrews believed were attempting to engage and attack them, as had happened eight years prior during the 1981 Gulf of Sidra incident. This patch does not have velcro attached.
