I am going to build a UH-60L Blackhawk that I flew on several times in Iraq. I am desperately searching for a desert uniform patch for the unit.
The unit is 4/2 ACR "Renegades". I am looking for a patch like the one on this crew chiefs helmet:
I want to get the patch to attach it to the display base.
Here is a couple of pictures of the bird:
The pilots and crew were outstanding professionals and I enjoyed every flight (even during jenking manuevers)!
I think the 2nd ACR was originally from Ft. Stewart in Georgia. The last I heard, they were relocating to Ft. Lewis to convert to a Stryker Brigade and they were being renamed the 2nd Cavalry Regiment.
I would be willing to pay any reasonable cost plus a little extra for one of these desert patches. This is a very sentimental project for me.

Looks like a locally-made patch for the 4/2 CAV Squadron. The 2nd ACR patch looks like below. Also, they are from Ft Polk, LA, and will relocate to Ft Lewis, WA later this year.
2ACR Patch:
Good luck, sorry I can't help more.

You can get a 2 ACR patch from the Cavalry Store for about 5 bucks.

I'm not looking for the 2nd ACR "Tourjours Pret" patch. I am looking for the patch that is on the crew chiefs visor cover.
The patch says Renegades, 4/2 ACR. It is an issue patch because I tried to get one when they were supporting my unit but the supply sergeant was out and was waiting for his order to arrive.
