USMC 2nd Bn 5th Marines Blackhearts Patch — Embroidered Patch
Blackhearts — 2nd Battalion, 5th Marines
The Blackhearts of 2/5 carry a nickname as dark and uncompromising as their combat reputation. This patch represents a battalion that has fought under the banner of the most decorated regiment in the Marine Corps, bringing the same aggressive, no-retreat spirit to every battlefield they've touched.
2nd Battalion, 5th Marines, known as the Blackhearts, operates from Camp Pendleton as part of the 5th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division. The battalion's combat record spans every major conflict from World War I through Afghanistan. The "Blackhearts" callsign reflects the battalion's fierce identity — Marines who fight with cold-blooded efficiency and unwavering determination. In Iraq and Afghanistan, 2/5 deployed to some of the most contested areas, conducting counterinsurgency and direct action operations that demanded the full spectrum of infantry skills. The Blackhearts tradition is simple: fight hard, fight smart, and never give the enemy a moment's rest.
Perfect For:
2/5 Marines past and present, 5th Marines regiment personnel, 1st MARDIV veterans, Camp Pendleton Marines, Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, and anyone who appreciates the aggressive spirit of the Blackhearts.
Blackhearts — fighting with no mercy since day one.
