Vintage US Customs Service Patch – New Orleans Air Branch

Description

Legacy US Customs New Orleans Air Branch (Bayou Bushwacker) Patch — Federal Aviation Law Enforcement Heritage Embroidered Patch

Bayou Bushwacker — because chasing smugglers through Louisiana swamps from the air requires a special kind of crazy.

The U.S. Customs New Orleans Air Branch, known as the “Bayou Bushwackers,” conducted aerial interdiction operations across the Gulf Coast, Louisiana bayous, and Mississippi River corridor. Operating in some of the most challenging low-altitude flying environments in the country, New Orleans crews tracked maritime and aerial smuggling operations through a labyrinth of waterways, swamps, and offshore approaches.

• Embroidered legacy federal law enforcement patch
• Dense stitching with merrowed border for collectible quality
• Hook & loop backing for flight jackets, tactical gear, and patch walls

Perfect For:
Former U.S. Customs New Orleans Air Branch agents, Gulf Coast interdiction veterans, CBP AMO personnel, and legacy Customs aviation patch collectors. If you bushwacked the bayou, this one’s yours.
