Marine Air Control Squadron MACS-23 — USMC Embroidered Patch
East Coast Air Surveillance
MACS-23 provided the radar-based air surveillance and intercept control that gave the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing's commanders a clear picture of the air battlespace. This officially licensed patch represents the air control Marines who operated on the East Coast.
Marine Air Control Squadron 23 operated tactical radar systems as part of Marine Air Control Group 28 and the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing's air command and control system. The squadron provided air surveillance, identification, intercept control, and airspace management, operating the Tactical Air Operations Center that coordinated the air defense of the MAGTF. MACS-23 Marines ensured that every aircraft in the battlespace was identified, tracked, and either cleared or engaged.
Perfect For:
MACS-23 veterans, 2nd MAW air control Marines, MACG-28 personnel, and Marine aviation command and control collectors.
MACS-23 — East Coast Air Control.
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.
