This is a reproduction of the FIRST squadron patch for the "Fist of the Fleet". Note, there are not any stars on this original design, but added later in the second (and later) versions of the patch. They were A-7 drivers out on the West Coast with a history dating back to January 1943. They currently operate the F/A-18C Hornet out of NAS Lemoore, CA. This is their legacy patch created in Nov 1970.
 

This is a reproduction of the SECOND squadron patch for the "Fist of the Fleet". They were A-7 drivers out on the West Coast with a history dating back to January 1943. They currently operate the F/A-18C Hornet out of NAS Lemoore, CA. This is their legacy patch created in Nov 1973. This was created by hand in the Phillipines to give it the "authentic" look and feel. The "stars" on the patch stand for WW II, Korea War and Vietnam. Hope to have the "original" design soon.
