The Cradle of the Seahawk: HSL-41. The HSL-41 Seahawks Squadron Patch is a tribute to the foundation of modern naval helicopter warfare. Established in 1983, HSL-41 was the schoolhouse that transitioned the Navy from the Seasprite to the Seahawk, training the thousands of "LAMPSyers" who would go on to dominate the Pacific and beyond.

The plastic backing provides a stable foundation that protects the embroidery from the elements and ensures a "factory-fresh" look even after years of wear. It is the essential choice for any veteran who earned their wings or their rating under the HSL-41 Seahawk banner. Exceptional Craftsmanship The HSL-41 insignia—featuring the predatory Seahawk over a blue sea—is one of the most recognized logos in naval aviation. Every detail, from the Seahawk's wingspan to the intricate submarine silhouette, is executed with precision. Though the squadron is now HSM-41, this HSL-era patch remains a cornerstone of West Coast aviation history.
