U.S. Coast Guard
USCGC FIREBUSH, Governors Island, New York (W0310)

FIREBUSH was a sea-going buoytender, tending buoys and lights in the New York harbor area until 1978, when she was overhauled and moved to Kodiak, Alaska.  She was decommissioned in 2003ish and transferred to Ghana.   

This patch dates to before 1978. 
It is a new, large size 5" wide and 5" tall color patch.
It is machine sewn, 60% embroidered on pale aqua surface embroidered cloth, with a die cut edge, and an unsealed back.

Her patch changed when she moved to Kodiak. 


Patches are shipped using the default Economy Shipping option (no action required of the buyer) with stamps 
which does not provide a tracking number.

If you want tracking, change the shipping method during check-out to the USPS Ground Advantage shipping option or
USPS Priority Mail shipping option (a little faster).  These options cost more - for the tracking.  
I do not offer overnight or non-USPS shipping.
