(Another AV8RSTUFF Creation): This is one of the cruise patches for VFA-147 for their 2017 Deployment onboard the USS NIMITZ (CVN-68) as part of CVW-8. It says “2017 COMBAT CRUISE” (top)/ “OPERATION INHERENT RESOLVE” (bottom) with all the squadron logos around the edge of the patch. It has a Red/White/Blue Spartan Mask over the middle Eastern countries they “visited” and is made using that new “hybrid” technology, giving the most detail ever seen on a stitched patch. An absolutely amazing patch they commissionedQ!! This patch does not have velcro attached.
