Official VMM-362 Ugly Angels Raider PVC Patch — MARSOC's Tiltrotor Support
Because when the Raiders need a ride, the Ugly Angels answer the call — ugly and all.
VMM-362, the Ugly Angels, carries one of the most iconic names in Marine Corps aviation. The squadron earned its nickname in Vietnam when HMM-362, commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Archie Clapp, went ashore at Sóc Trăng Airfield on April 15, 1962, becoming the first Marine aircraft unit in South Vietnam. Originally called "Archie's Angels," the name evolved to "Ugly Angels" — and it stuck for the next six decades. After being deactivated in 2012 following their final CH-53D combat deployment to Afghanistan, the Ugly Angels were reactivated in August 2018 at MCAS Miramar flying the MV-22B Osprey. This Raider PVC patch represents VMM-362's support of Marine Special Operations Command (MARSOC) — delivering Raiders where they need to go, when they need to be there, in a tiltrotor platform that goes from ship to shore to deep inland.
Perfect For: VMM-362 Ugly Angels Marines and veterans, MARSOC Raider community members, MCAS Miramar tiltrotor personnel, and anyone who knows the Ugly Angels have been first in the fight since 1962.
Ugly Angels. First in Vietnam. Still first in the fight.
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.
