Official VMM-363 Red Lions Easter Patch - Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 363 (VMM-363) Lucky Red Lions Holiday Embroidered Patch.
Lucky Red Lions pride, Hawaii-based tiltrotor identity, and squadron holiday tradition stitched into one officially recognized emblem.
VMM-363 traces its lineage to June 2, 1952, when the unit was activated at Marine Corps Air Station Santa Ana, California, in response to the demands of the Korean War. The squadron earned its iconic Red Lions identity during the Vietnam War, when Korean Marines presented the unit with an award following Operation Flying Tiger, one of the most successful Korean offensives of the conflict. That award became the foundation of the squadron's insignia and the source of its Lucky Red Lions nickname. Today VMM-363 operates MV-22B Ospreys from MCB Hawaii under Marine Aircraft Group 24 and the 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, providing assault support transport of combat troops, supplies, and equipment during expeditionary, joint, and combined operations. Holiday patches like this Easter edition are part of a well-established Red Lions tradition, reflecting the squadron's culture of recognizing the diverse backgrounds and shared moments of the Marines who keep the Ospreys flying. The embroidered construction gives the design a clean, durable finish suited for flight-line gear, patch panels, shadow boxes, and unit-history displays, while the holiday theme adds a personal, human dimension to a serious operational lineage.
Perfect For: VMM-363 veterans and active-duty Marines, MV-22B Osprey crew members and maintainers, Red Lions alumni and family members, MAG-24 and 1st Marine Aircraft Wing collectors, Hawaii-based Marine Corps supporters, holiday-themed military patch collectors, squadron reunion displays, deployment keepsake boards, shadow boxes, and anyone building a unit-history collection that captures both the operational identity and the everyday culture of Marine medium tiltrotor aviation. It also makes a meaningful seasonal gift for supporters who want something specific, personal, and rooted in verified squadron heritage rather than generic aviation memorabilia.
Lucky Red Lions heritage, holiday spirit, and seventy years of Marine aviation pride in every stitch.
If you want to swap patches on/off gear, choose hook & loop (velcro). If you’re attaching permanently to uniforms or fabric, choose sew-on. If you want quick application on compatible fabric, choose iron-on / heat seal (when offered). Backing options are shown on the page and update based on the variant you select.
Size is shown on the product page and updates with the variant you select (example: 3"). If you’re mounting on a hat or small panel, choose smaller sizes; for plate carriers and display boards, larger sizes fit better.
If the product is officially licensed, it will say “Officially Licensed” in the title and/or in the product details. If it doesn’t, it’s still a legitimate product—just not part of a licensed program.
