Official VMM-268 Red Dragons Halloween Patch — Fire-Breathing and Trick-or-Treating
Because Red Dragons were already terrifying. Halloween just made it canon.
VMM-268, the Red Dragons, have been bringing the heat since 1972 — flying MV-22 Ospreys out of MCAS Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, as part of MAG-24 and 1st MAW. From deployments across the Indo-Pacific to humanitarian relief operations and combat rotations, the Red Dragons are one of the Pacific's most versatile tiltrotor squadrons. When your mascot is literally a fire-breathing dragon and you fly an aircraft that tilts between helicopter and airplane mode, you're already operating in the realm of the supernatural. This Halloween patch leans all the way into the spooky season energy — because nothing haunts an LZ quite like the sound of a pair of Rolls-Royce turboshafts screaming overhead in the dark.
Perfect For: VMM-268 Red Dragons Marines and crew, MCAS Kaneohe Bay personnel, 1st MAW tiltrotor community, and anyone who thinks dragons are scarier than whatever costume you're wearing.
Red Dragons don't trick. Red Dragons treat — with 38 combat-loaded Marines.
