Officially Licensed USMC MWSD-24 Gryphons Squadron Patch — The Wing's Weather Warriors
When the air wing needs to know what's coming, the Gryphons have the answer.
Marine Wing Support Detachment 24 (MWSD-24) "Gryphons" is a unit within the Marine Corps aviation support structure that provides critical weather, airfield services, and expeditionary airfield support to Marine Aircraft Groups and the Marine Air-Ground Task Force. These are the Marines who operate forward airfields, provide meteorological support, manage air traffic control in austere environments, and ensure that flight operations continue regardless of conditions. Without units like MWSD-24, Marine aviation doesn't launch, doesn't land, and doesn't fight. The Gryphons represent the essential — if often unsung — ground support backbone that keeps Marine aircraft in the air and Marine airfields operational. This officially licensed patch features the mythical Gryphon — a fitting symbol for a unit that combines the strength and vigilance of multiple disciplines into one expeditionary support package.
Perfect For: MWSD-24 Gryphons Marines and veterans, Marine Wing Support personnel, expeditionary airfield operations Marines, MACG and MACS veterans, 2nd MAW support Marines, and anyone who knows the flight line doesn't run itself.
MWSD-24 Gryphons — the wing flies because we work.
