U.S. Coast Guard Tail Flash Hats — MH-60 Jayhawk & HC-130 Hercules

This page was built for the crews who fly the CG mission. If you flew, maintained, or supported the Jayhawk or the Herc wearing Coast Guard colors, this is yours.

The U.S. Coast Guard operates some of the most demanding aviation missions in the world — open-ocean search and rescue, law enforcement, disaster response — in aircraft and conditions that would ground most. Herky Bird Co. was built by aircrew who know what that kind of flying looks like. The USCG tail flash gear isn't a generic aviation hat with a logo slapped on it. It's built around the same design language you see on the tail of the aircraft.
