USMC 3rd Force Recon Patch — Embroidered Patch
Deep Reconnaissance — Third Force
Third Force Reconnaissance Company carries the same elite pedigree as its sister companies, operating at the cutting edge of Marine Corps reconnaissance and direct action capability. This patch represents the Marines who have earned their place in one of the most demanding units in the Marine Corps.
3rd Force Recon has served as a deep reconnaissance asset for III Marine Expeditionary Force, providing the forward-deployed force in the Pacific with specialized intelligence-gathering capability. Force Recon Marines undergo rigorous selection and training that includes military freefall parachuting, combat diving, close-quarters battle, and advanced communications — skills that allow small teams to infiltrate deep into denied territory and provide critical intelligence to senior commanders. The company has deployed throughout the Western Pacific and to combat zones in the Middle East, conducting the high-risk missions that conventional reconnaissance units cannot perform.
Perfect For:
Force Recon Marines who served with 3rd Force, III MEF reconnaissance personnel, Pacific-based Marines, special operations enthusiasts, and anyone who understands that the best intelligence comes from Marines on the ground in the most dangerous places.
Third Force — deep reconnaissance, anywhere in the Pacific.
