MALS-41 Desperados — USMC Embroidered Patch

Desperados of the Reserve

The Desperados of MALS-41 are the aviation logistics force behind MAG-41's reserve combat aviation capability. Based at NAS JRB Fort Worth, these citizen Marines maintain the same rigorous standards as their active duty counterparts, keeping reserve F/A-18 Hornets and KC-130 Hercules aircraft mission-ready.

MALS-41 serves as the aviation logistics squadron for Marine Aircraft Group 41 within the 4th Marine Aircraft Wing. The Desperados provide intermediate-level maintenance, avionics support, aviation supply, and ordnance services to MAG-41's squadrons. When activated, MALS-41 Marines have deployed alongside active component logistics units, seamlessly integrating into combat support operations in Afghanistan and Iraq. The squadron's reserve Marines bring unique expertise from their civilian careers in aviation maintenance, engineering, and logistics, making them a force multiplier for Marine aviation's Total Force concept.

Perfect For:
MALS-41 Desperados veterans, MAG-41 Reserve Marines, 4th MAW logistics personnel, NAS JRB Fort Worth community, and reserve aviation maintenance collectors.

Desperados — Reserve Logistics at Its Best.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.
