Unit History & Context: Golf Company of the 2nd Battalion, 211th General Support Aviation Battalion — "North Star Dustoff" — is an Air Ambulance (MEDEVAC) company drawn from multiple upper-Midwest Army National Guard states: Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Kansas. The unit deployed to Afghanistan for Operation Enduring Freedom 2012-2013, flying HH-60M Black Hawk medevac aircraft on critical casualty evacuation missions. "North Star" references the Minnesota state nickname and the unit's primary headquarters.
Symbology: Red Cross on tan field, HH-60M Black Hawk silhouette in profile, Army aviator wings with red cross detail. State silhouettes (MN, WI, IA, KS) and Afghanistan country outline rotate around the border. Black-and-green outer ring.
For Collectors: Multi-state Guard MEDEVAC patches are increasingly collected — they represent the cross-state pooling that's typical of modern Guard aviation deployments.
