Officially Licensed VMA-312 Checkerboards WWII Remade Patch — USMC Attack Squadron Heritage Embroidered Patch

The Checkerboards have been in the fight since World War II — this remade patch honors the legacy.

Marine Attack Squadron 312 (VMA-312), the "Checkerboards," traces its lineage back to World War II, where the squadron flew the F4U Corsair in the Pacific Theater. Over the decades, the Checkerboards transitioned through multiple aircraft — from Corsairs to Panthers to Cougars to Hornets — serving under MAG-31 at MCAS Beaufort, South Carolina. This WWII remade patch celebrates the original wartime design that started it all.

Perfect For:
VMA-312 Checkerboards alumni, WWII Marine aviation historians, F4U Corsair enthusiasts, and USMC heritage patch collectors.

Checkerboards — since World War II.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.
