my son transfered to mas cherry point north carolina on 1 /12. he is with the 366th marine heavy helicopter squadron (hammerheads) as a mechanic / technition on ch -53's. after just completing his training he will start wrenching on the stallions shortly. i googled his unit as i was curious what his uniform patch as a hammerhead looks like. i saw a few pics of the patch but would love to see a close up!! any help would be appreciated. i would also appreciate hearing about any feedback on the hammerhead squadron. thanks!!

Here is a link to a bigger patch, in toned down greens though. I wish him well and keep safe.
