You have most of the older USS GUAM patches in the different sizes. These are some of the newer ones

You've got all of the USS NEW ORLEANS patches in the different sizes and the white merrowed edge patch is made by Marine Photos and Publishing

Very nice Serge

 

Well before the Iranian Crisis of 1979 the USN was establishing forward deployed task forces in the Middle East and in particular the Persian Gulf region.

 

The Red Sea Yacht Club was established in 1976 and USS GUAM (LPH-9) was a charter member (plankowner). 6" jacket patch 1976 Red Sea Cruise
