Description
This patch is a custom military morale patch related to a deployment during Operation Inherent Resolve (OIR) in 2015–2016. The location "WEST ARKAVANIA" appears to be a humorous or fictional operational name for the specific area or detachment using the "THE OTHER GUYS" moniker. The character depicted is likely "Waldo" from the Where's Waldo series, used here as an inside joke for the unit's elusive or observational role during the deployment.
This embroidered military patch measures 3.4 inches wide by 3.7 inches tall. The design is richly detailed, featuring a character resembling Waldo, a blacked-out helicopter, and a map outline of "West Arkavania." It also includes the text "OIR 15-16" and the unit nickname "THE OTHER GUYS." The patch is constructed for durability with a clean stitched border and a practical hook velcro backing for secure attachment to flight suits, tactical gear, or uniforms.
