3rd Littoral Combat Team — USMC Embroidered Patch
Fortes Fortuna Juvat — Fortune Favors the Bold
The 3rd Littoral Combat Team represents the cutting edge of the Marine Corps' transformation — a unit purpose-built for the next war in the Pacific. Redesignated from the legendary 1st Battalion, 3rd Marines, the 3rd LCT is trained and equipped to seize and defend key maritime terrain in contested environments.
The 3rd Littoral Combat Team, formerly 1st Battalion 3rd Marines (the "Lava Dogs"), was redesignated on 23 June 2022 as part of the Commandant's Force Design 2030 initiative. Based at MCB Hawaii under the 3rd Marine Littoral Regiment, the 3rd LCT conducts reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, employs and enables multi-domain fires, and establishes expeditionary advanced base sites to support the maritime campaign in the Indo-Pacific. The unit inherits a combat lineage stretching from Bougainville in World War II through Desert Storm, Fallujah, and Helmand Province, now refocused on great power competition in the Pacific.
Perfect For:
3rd LCT Marines and veterans, 3rd Marine Littoral Regiment personnel, MCB Hawaii community, Force Design 2030 supporters, and Pacific-focused Marine Corps collectors.
Fortes Fortuna Juvat — Bold in the Littorals.
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.
Yes. If you see a note like “bulk reruns available,” that means we can support group orders or reruns. If you don’t see it, contact us with the unit/squadron and quantity and we’ll confirm options.
Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
