Product Description

US Merchant Marine Embroidered Patch

The forgotten service. The Merchant Marine kept the supply lines open when the world was on fire — and they're still at it.

The United States Merchant Marine has delivered cargo, fuel, and personnel to every theater of war since the American Revolution. During World War II alone, Merchant Mariners suffered one of the highest casualty rates of any service, losing over 9,500 members while delivering the materiel that sustained Allied operations worldwide. Today's Merchant Marine continues to serve as the nation's commercial sealift capability, crewing the ships that move military cargo and sustain global trade. Available in large and small format.

Perfect For:
Merchant Marine veterans, maritime academy graduates, commercial mariners, sealift command personnel, and anyone who respects the Fourth Arm of Defense.

They delivered the war — and never stopped.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right backing?

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.

What size is this item?

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.

Are these Officially Licensed?

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.

Do you offer bulk or reruns for units/squadrons?

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.

Can you make a custom patch / name tag / lanyard / apparel?

Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
