Official VMM-265 Pacific Cruising Dragons Patch — Dragons Over the Indo-Pacific
The Dragons of VMM-265 cruise the Pacific in their Ospreys — from Okinawa to wherever the mission takes them.
Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265 (Reinforced) (VMM-265 REIN), the Dragons, operates the MV-22B Osprey from MCAS Futenma, Okinawa, under 1st Marine Aircraft Wing and III Marine Expeditionary Force. This "Pacific Cruising" embroidered patch captures the Dragons' forward-deployed lifestyle, constantly deploying with the 31st MEU across the vast Indo-Pacific region. VMM-265's Ospreys provide rapid assault transport for Marines operating from amphibious ships, and their forward position in Okinawa ensures the Dragons are always among the first tiltrotor assets available for crisis response.
Perfect For: VMM-265 Dragons crews, 31st MEU tiltrotor deployers, Okinawa-based Marine aviators, Pacific-cruising Osprey fans, and USMC tiltrotor patch collectors.
