Custom Apparel for the VAW-124 Bear Aces Squadron

The Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron (VAW) 124 "Bear Aces" is one of the U.S. Navy's premier E-2D Advanced Hawkeye squadrons, delivering airborne command and control, battle management, air surveillance, and early warning capabilities that are essential to modern carrier strike group operations. Based at Naval Station Norfolk, Virginia, VAW-124 is assigned to Carrier Air Wing Eight (CVW-8) and deploys aboard U.S. Navy aircraft carriers to support missions around the globe.

Since its establishment in 1967, the Bear Aces have built a distinguished history of operational excellence, participating in numerous deployments, multinational exercises, and combat operations. Whether coordinating complex air operations, providing long-range surveillance, or protecting the carrier strike group from emerging threats, the Sailors of VAW-124 play a critical role in ensuring mission success.

Lucky Shot Tees is proud to create custom apparel that reflects the professionalism, heritage, and camaraderie of the Bear Aces. Whether you're an active-duty Sailor, veteran, family member, or squadron alumnus, our custom apparel is designed to commemorate your service and celebrate the traditions that make VAW-124 unique.

Apparel for Every Deployment and Squadron Event

Every deployment creates stories that become part of a squadron's legacy. From pre-deployment workups and Composite Training Unit Exercises (COMPTUEX) to overseas cruises, homecomings, Tiger Cruises, change of command ceremonies, retirements, command picnics, and reunion weekends, every milestone is an opportunity to create apparel that strengthens unit pride.

Lucky Shot Tees works with commands to develop shirts for deployment cruises, maintenance departments, aircrew, command physical training, Family Readiness Groups, fundraising events, golf tournaments, holiday celebrations, and alumni reunions.

Years after the deployment has ended, these shirts often become treasured keepsakes that remind Sailors of the friendships they built, the ports they visited, and the missions they accomplished together.

Premium Apparel Built for Naval Aviation

The quality of your squadron apparel should reflect the professionalism of your command. That's why Lucky Shot Tees offers premium garments that combine comfort, durability, and exceptional print quality.
