Official C-12 VMR Belle Chasse "Whiskey & Foxes" Patch — Marine Transport Squadron Belle Chasse UC-12W Huron NAS JRB New Orleans Embroidered Patch
Whiskey & Foxes — VMR Belle Chasse C-12 Hurons, Marine Forces Reserve transport on call.
Marine Transport Squadron Belle Chasse (VMR Belle Chasse) is a US Marine Corps Reserve operational support airlift squadron based at Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base New Orleans (NAS JRB Belle Chasse), Louisiana, under Marine Aircraft Group 49 (MAG-49) and the 4th Marine Aircraft Wing (4th MAW) — Marine Forces Reserve. The squadron operates the Beechcraft UC-12W Huron — the militarized King Air 350-based light transport — providing on-demand operational support airlift, distinguished visitor (DV) movement, time-critical cargo and passenger transport, and humanitarian assistance and disaster relief (HA/DR) lift in support of the Commandant of the Marine Corps, MARFORRES Commanding General, regional Marine Corps reserve units, and Combatant Commander tasking across the United States and overseas. As a reserve OSA squadron, VMR Belle Chasse pairs an active-duty inactive-duty training (IDT) drilling reserve crew with civilian and full-time support military aviators, sustaining a continuous flying schedule that supports both routine MAG-49 / 4th MAW staff travel and surge requirements during major exercises, hurricane response in the Gulf Coast region, and overseas detachments. The "Whiskey & Foxes" callsign on this patch references the squadron's UC-12W Huron tail-letter family and the squadron's Louisiana detachment heritage. This patch carries the C-12 silhouette and the unit's quiet, reliable identity.
Perfect For: VMR Belle Chasse active-duty, full-time support, and Selected Reserve Marines, UC-12W Huron pilots, naval flight officers, and crew chiefs, MAG-49 and 4th Marine Aircraft Wing personnel, Marine Forces Reserve (MARFORRES) staff, NAS JRB Belle Chasse and Greater New Orleans military community, US Marine Corps operational support airlift (OSA) supporters, and Beechcraft King Air community enthusiasts.
