Officially Licensed USMC MACG-18 PVC Patch — Marine Air Control Group 18 Patch
Born in Da Nang at the height of Vietnam — and still running the airspace for III MEF in the Pacific.
Marine Air Control Group 18 was formed on September 1, 1967 in Da Nang, Vietnam, with its component units already deep in combat — including a HAWK missile battalion that was among the first Marine units to land in-country. MACG-18 participated in every major campaign in I Corps and earned four Presidential Unit Citations, three Navy Unit Commendations, and a Meritorious Unit Commendation. Today, MACG-18 is based at MCAS Futenma, Okinawa, providing command, control, communications, air traffic control, and short-range air defense for 1st Marine Aircraft Wing and III MEF across the Indo-Pacific.
• Official PVC military patch with raised 3D design
• Weatherproof and UV-resistant — won't fade or fray
• Hook & loop backing for tactical gear, flight equipment, and headwear
• Easy-clean surface maintains sharp appearance
• Sized for standard Velcro panels
Perfect For:
MACG-18 Marines past and present, 1st MAW command and control personnel, air traffic controllers and TAOC operators, III MEF Marines stationed in Okinawa, and USMC unit patch collectors. A piece of Vietnam-era Marine aviation history that's still operationally relevant.
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.
