Description

HTL Korea Ribbon Patch — HTL Sioux Helicopter Korean War Service Ribbon Embroidered Patch

HTL Sioux Korea — the light observation helicopter of the Korean War, paired with the campaign ribbon.

The Bell HTL (H-13 Sioux) served as a light observation and medical evacuation helicopter during the Korean War. HTL crews of VMO-6 flew observation, medevac, and command liaison missions across Korea’s brutal terrain, carrying wounded Marines from frontline positions to aid stations and providing commanders with aerial reconnaissance of enemy positions. The HTL Sioux saved countless lives through rapid battlefield evacuation — a mission that would become one of the helicopter’s most enduring legacies. This ribbon patch pairs the Korean War service ribbon with the aircraft.

Perfect For:
Korean War helicopter aircrew veterans, HTL/H-13 Sioux enthusiasts, medevac aviation historians, Korean War service ribbon collectors, and vintage Korean War aviation patch collectors.
