Official VMFA-214 / 75th RAAF Black Sheep Joint Patch — Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 214 "Black Sheep" and Royal Australian Air Force No. 75 Squadron F-35 Joint Heritage Patch
Two Black Sheep, one Pacific — VMFA-214 and 75 SQN RAAF, joined by the F-35 Lightning II.
Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 214 (VMFA-214), the legendary "Black Sheep," is a USMC F-35B Lightning II strike fighter squadron based at MCAS Yuma, Arizona, under MAG-13 and the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing. Originally commissioned as VMF-214 on July 1, 1942 in Ewa, Hawaii, the squadron entered Marine Corps lore in 1943 under Major Gregory "Pappy" Boyington when its F4U Corsair pilots — operating out of Vella Lavella and the Russell Islands — were credited with 94 Japanese aircraft destroyed in a single 84-day combat tour. The Black Sheep flew Corsairs through Korea, transitioned through the F9F Panther, A-4 Skyhawk, and AV-8 Harrier, and operated the AV-8B Harrier II from MCAS Yuma until July 2022, before reactivating as the Marine Corps' newest F-35B squadron in November 2022. Royal Australian Air Force No. 75 Squadron — also nicknamed the "Black Sheep," identified by their distinctive ram's-head emblem — was formed at Townsville on March 4, 1942 and famously defended Port Moresby in P-40 Kittyhawks before transitioning through Mustangs, Sabres, Mirage IIIs, F/A-18 Hornets, and now the F-35A Lightning II at RAAF Base Tindal. This 75th-anniversary joint patch celebrates the shared identity, callsign, and fifth-generation aircraft that link two squadrons born in the same Pacific theater of 1942 — a joint operations tradition that continues today across the Indo-Pacific.
Perfect For: VMFA-214 Black Sheep Marines, RAAF No. 75 Squadron personnel, F-35B and F-35A Lightning II pilots and maintainers, MCAS Yuma and RAAF Tindal personnel, MAG-13 and 3rd MAW Marines, AV-8B Harrier II and F4U Corsair heritage enthusiasts, Pappy Boyington historians, and US/Australia joint-operations supporters.
Black Sheep Brothers — two flags, one fight, since 1942.
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.
