Vintage original Vietnam war in-country machine-embroidered patch, size is 3.75" by 3.75" - used condition. A great find for any military collectible enthusiast.

The 238th Aerial Weapons Company served in Vietnam as part of the 286th Battalion of the 1st Aviation Brigade. It was stationed first at An Khe, then Phu Hiep, near the air base at Tuy Hoa, and finally on the Tuy Hoa airbase. The unit was an all-gunship company and was normally assigned as general support for II Corps. During early 1971, the unit was moved to Dong Ha, near the DMZ, and took part in the Lam Son 719 operation in Laos. The four "flashes" around the outside of the patch indicate the areas the unit operated in. II Corps, our normal operations area, Cambodia, during early 1970 when U.S. units went into Cambodia near Pleiku, I Corps during the lead up to Lam Son 719, and Laos during that operation. The unit received the "Valorous Unit Award" for operations during Lam Son 719. All of those operations were flown in the "Bravo" and "Charlie" model Huey gunship. In mid 1971, the unit converted to the AH1G Cobra, and flew that aircraft until it was withdrawn in January 1972.
