Official NAS Whiting South Field TH-73 Thrasher Back Porch Patch
The Back Porch — where student Naval Aviators at Whiting Field learn to hover, and the instructors learn to pray.
NAS Whiting Field’s South Field is where Navy and Marine Corps student helicopter pilots begin their journey in the TH-73A Thrasher — the new training helicopter replacing the venerable TH-57 Sea Ranger. The “Back Porch” is the area behind the hangars where the training happens, and this patch captures the identity of the instructors and students who work there every day turning civilians into military helicopter pilots.
Perfect For:
NAS Whiting Field helicopter instructors and students, TH-73A Thrasher crews, rotary-wing student Naval Aviators, and training command patch collectors.
Back Porch. Where pilots are made.
