Official VMMT-204 Raptors Christmas Patch — Marine Medium Tiltrotor Training Squadron 204 Holiday Embroidered Patch
Even Raptors celebrate Christmas.
Marine Medium Tiltrotor Training Squadron 204 (VMMT-204) "Raptors" is the United States Marine Corps' fleet replacement squadron for the MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft, based at Marine Corps Air Station New River, North Carolina. This Christmas edition patch is the squadron's festive holiday morale design — a beloved annual tradition in Marine aviation where squadrons create special seasonal patches to celebrate the holidays with creativity and humor.
VMMT-204 is where every Marine MV-22B Osprey pilot and crew chief learns to fly and operate the revolutionary tiltrotor aircraft. Assigned to Marine Aircraft Group 26 (MAG-26) and the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, the Raptors run a demanding training syllabus that transforms newly designated naval aviators into fleet-ready Osprey pilots. The Christmas patch tradition provides a welcome bit of levity during the intense training schedule, and these limited-edition holiday designs become highly sought-after collectibles among the Osprey community. Whether worn on a flight suit during the holiday stand-down or displayed in a personal collection, the VMMT-204 Christmas patch is a reminder that even in the midst of rigorous military training, there's always room for holiday spirit.
Perfect For: VMMT-204 Raptors personnel, MV-22 Osprey pilots and crew chiefs, Marine aviation Christmas patch collectors, and MCAS New River holiday memorabilia fans.
Merry Christmas from the Raptors — VMMT-204.
