Marine Air Traffic Control Squadron MATCS-18 — Embroidered Patch
Pacific Air Traffic Control

The squadron's Marines operate expeditionary air traffic control systems, providing approach control, ground control, and departure services at Marine air bases and forward operating locations. MATCS-18 ensures that the high volume of Marine aviation traffic in the Indo-Pacific is managed safely and efficiently, supporting both combat operations and routine training.
Perfect For:
MATCS-18 veterans and active duty Marines, Marine air traffic controllers, 1st MAW aviation support personnel, and Marine aviation operations collectors.
Pacific Tower — Controlling the Pattern.
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.
