Official VMM-262 REIN Korea PVC Patch - Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 262 Reinforced (VMM-262 REIN), Flying Tigers, MV-22B Osprey Korea deployment PVC Patch.
Every Man a Tiger, forward-deployed across the Pacific, and ready to move the mission when Korea calls.
VMM-262, the Flying Tigers, is based at Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, Okinawa, under Marine Aircraft Group 36 and the 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, where it has served as one of the most consistently forward-deployed tiltrotor squadrons in the Marine Corps. Activated in September 1951, the squadron built its reputation across decades of Pacific operations before transitioning from the CH-46E Sea Knight to the MV-22B Osprey and earning its VMM designation. The REIN suffix marks the squadron in its reinforced configuration, organized to support a Marine Expeditionary Brigade-level Aviation Combat Element with combat-ready expeditionary assault support aircraft. Korea has been a recurring destination for the Flying Tigers, with the squadron participating in peninsula exercises and regional contingency operations as part of its broader Western Pacific commitment. That Korea-specific deployment identity is what separates this patch from a standard VMM-262 piece and gives it a focused place in any serious Marine aviation collection. The PVC construction holds color and detail through field conditions, making it a practical choice for gear, flight bags, patch panels, and shadow box displays alike.
Perfect For: VMM-262 Flying Tigers veterans and alumni, MV-22B Osprey aircrew and maintainers, Marines who served on Korea-linked deployments or peninsula exercises, MAG-36 and 1st Marine Aircraft Wing collectors, Marine Expeditionary Brigade aviation supporters, deployment keepsake displays, challenge coin and patch boards, shadow boxes, reunion gifts, and anyone building a unit-history collection around forward-deployed Pacific tiltrotor operations. It also suits families and supporters who want a specific, well-researched tribute to the crews and ground personnel who keep the Flying Tigers ready for short-notice employment across the Western Pacific.
Flying Tigers, Korea-bound, stitched in PVC for the board, the bag, and the memory.
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.
