Official VMR-1 Shoulder Patch — The Roadrunners Keep the Corps Moving
Meep meep. Your cargo is en route.
VMR-1 "Roadrunners" was the Marine Corps' dedicated air transport squadron, operating out of NAS JRB Fort Worth, Texas under Marine Aircraft Group 41 and the 4th Marine Aircraft Wing. The Roadrunners provided executive and logistics airlift support to Marine Corps and Department of Defense organizations, moving personnel, cargo, and VIPs wherever the mission required. Operating aircraft like the C-9B Skytrain II and UC-35D Citation, VMR-1 was the Marine Corps' go-to unit for getting people and equipment where they needed to be — fast, reliable, and without the red tape of commercial aviation. The squadron earned its "Roadrunners" nickname for the speed and efficiency with which it executed its transport mission, supporting operations from routine administrative flights to urgent wartime logistics. This shoulder patch represents the working-class heroes of Marine aviation — the ones who don't drop bombs but make sure the bomb-droppers have what they need to fight.
