VF-84 Jolly Rogers HGU-33 Pilot Helmet Long Sleeve Tee

The legendary VF-84 “Jolly Rogers” became one of the most recognizable squadrons in U.S. Naval Aviation, famous for the unmistakable skull-and-crossbones markings carried on their aircraft. The squadron transitioned to the F-14A Tomcat in 1976, pairing its legendary markings with one of the Navy’s most iconic fighters. This shirt features the HGU-33 helmet used by the VF-84 Jolly Rogers during the 1983 cruise on the USS Nimitz.
