Sheriff Rescue Squad Patch — Order This Helicopter Hoist Shield Design
Design S1617A at a glance
A grey-edged shield showing a helicopter with a rescuer on the hoist line, suspended over a cross and a mountain range. Red, grey, silver and black keep it serious and high-contrast. Lettering carries an office name, a rescue squad callout, a founding year and an operations line, and every one of those fields restitches to your team's wording.

About this sheriff helicopter hoist rescue shield
Hoist rescue is the moment search teams train for, and this shield puts it at the center: an aircraft overhead, a rescuer on the cable, and the mountains below. The cross behind the scene marks the mission as rescue rather than enforcement. Red and black give the patch urgency, while grey and silver tie it to the sheriff's office uniform it sits on.
Adapt it to your team: redraw the aircraft as your actual airframe, name your office and squad in the lettering, or swap the mountains for desert mesas, forest or coastline to match your terrain. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Sheriff rescue squad patch questions
Can the helicopter match the aircraft we fly?
Yes. Send a photo of your helicopter and we redraw the silhouette — rotor, skids and tail — to match it, at no art charge.
Can volunteer SAR members wear this patch?
That is up to your sheriff's office. We often make two versions, one worded for deputies and one for volunteer members, both from the same art.
Is velcro backing available for flight suits?
Yes. Hook-side velcro mates with the loop panels on most flight suits and packs. Sew-on is still standard for team shirts.
Can the mountains change to match our terrain?
Yes. We can redraw the scene as canyon walls, forest, desert or open water. Mark it in the markup tool and the proof will show the new terrain.
How do I show you the changes we want?
Use the markup tool in the quote form: circle the aircraft, pin a note about your terrain and pick a colorway. The marked-up shield attaches to your quote.
