USMC 6th MARDIV Patch — Embroidered Patch
Born Overseas, Forged at Sugar Loaf
The 6th Marine Division holds a distinction no other Marine division can claim — it was formed overseas, fought one of the bloodiest battles of the Pacific War, and was disbanded overseas, never once setting foot on American soil. This patch represents a division that existed for barely 19 months but earned a place in Marine Corps history that will never fade.
Activated on Guadalcanal on September 7, 1944, the 6th Marine Division was built around the 1st Provisional Marine Brigade and the veteran 4th, 22nd, and 29th Marine Regiments. Its only major campaign was Okinawa, and it was enough to cement a legacy. Landing on April 1, 1945, the division swept through northern Okinawa at remarkable speed before being committed to the brutal southern front. At Sugar Loaf Hill, the 6th Division fought one of the most savage engagements of the entire Pacific War — a hellish complex of three mutually supporting hills that the division assaulted repeatedly over days of close combat. The division was credited with over 23,839 enemy killed or captured and earned a Presidential Unit Citation. After accepting Japan's local surrender at Tsingtao, China, the division was disbanded on April 1, 1946.
Perfect For:
WWII veterans and descendants connected to 6th MARDIV, Okinawa campaign historians, Battle of Sugar Loaf Hill researchers, Marine Corps heritage collectors, and anyone who understands that a division's greatness isn't measured by how long it existed but by what it accomplished.
Nineteen months of existence — a lifetime of legend.
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.
