Thanks for sharing. I plan to be in that area on vacation in July and visiting the ships at Patriots Point is high on my to-do list for that trip. Last time I was down there, I didn't do the ship tour and regretted it afterward. There aren't too many places where you have multiple ships available for tours like this. Next weekend, I'll be in Mobile and plan to tour the USS Alabama, which should hold me over til July.

Looking for Gulf War era patches related to any of the following:

USN UNITS: PHIBGRU 2, TACGRU 2, TACRON-22, ACU-2, BMU-2

USMC UNITS: MAG-40, 4th MEB, VMA-331, MASS-1, MACG-28, HMLA-269, BSSG-4, 2d LAAD, MWCS-28, HMR-774
