Official VAQ-137 Rooks JOPA Shoulder Patch — Junior Officer Protection Association
The Rooks’ JOPA — because junior officers need to stick together in the electronic warfare ready room.
This embroidered shoulder patch represents the Junior Officer Protection Association (JOPA) of Electronic Attack Squadron 137 (VAQ-137), the Rooks. JOPA is the tongue-in-cheek name for the informal alliance of junior officers in a squadron who band together for mutual support, shared complaining, and collective survival of the training and deployment cycle. VAQ-137’s JOPA patch identifies the wearer as a junior Rook — still learning the ropes but proud to be part of the electronic attack community and the squadron’s JO culture.
Perfect For: VAQ-137 Rooks junior officers, Navy JOPA culture fans, EA-18G JO community members, and squadron JO humor patch collectors.
Rooks JOPA — junior officers protecting each other.
