Official MAG-26 4th of July Patch — Marine Aircraft Group 26 Independence Day Embroidered Patch
1776 spirit, MAG-26 pride — Fourth of July at New River.
Marine Aircraft Group 26 (MAG-26) is a United States Marine Corps aviation command based at MCAS New River, North Carolina. Falling under the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing and II Marine Expeditionary Force, MAG-26 oversees multiple MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor squadrons, CH-53E Super Stallion heavy-lift squadrons, and supporting units that provide the assault support aviation capability for the East Coast Marine Expeditionary Forces. This special Fourth of July patch combines MAG-26's identity with patriotic Independence Day imagery, celebrating America's founding on July 4, 1776.
MAG-26's squadrons are the backbone of Marine assault support aviation on the East Coast, responsible for rapidly inserting Marines into contested zones, delivering supplies and heavy equipment to forward operating bases, and providing the vertical lift that makes amphibious operations possible. The Fourth of July is a particularly meaningful holiday in the military community, reminding service members of the revolutionary ideals they are sworn to defend. This commemorative patch blends MAG-26's operational identity with red, white, and blue patriotic pride, making it a perfect collectible for Independence Day and year-round display.
Perfect For: MAG-26 active-duty members and veterans, 2nd MAW and II MEF alumni, MCAS New River personnel, Fourth of July and patriotic patch collectors, Marine assault support aviation enthusiasts, and anyone who celebrates American independence with military pride.
1776 to today — MAG-26 celebrates the Fourth.
