Officially Licensed USMC VMSB-133 Patch — Marine Scout Bombing Squadron 133 Embroidered Patch
Dive bombers of the Pacific — VMSB-133's World War II legacy.
Marine Scout Bombing Squadron 133 (VMSB-133) was a United States Marine Corps dive bombing squadron that served during World War II. VMSB squadrons were the Marine Corps' precision strike force in the Pacific Theater, flying the SBD Dauntless and SB2C Helldiver dive bombers against Japanese targets across the island-hopping campaign. These squadrons specialized in the terrifying art of dive bombing — plunging nearly vertically toward their targets to deliver ordnance with devastating accuracy against ships, fortifications, and troop concentrations.
VMSB-133 represented the aggressive, offensive spirit that defined Marine aviation during the Second World War. Marine scout bombing squadrons operated from crude island airstrips carved out of coral and jungle, often under fire, providing the close air support and interdiction strikes that enabled Marine ground forces to seize and hold territory across the vast Pacific. The courage of VMSB crews — diving through walls of anti-aircraft fire to place their bombs on target — remains one of the most heroic chapters in Marine Corps aviation history.
Perfect For: WWII Marine aviation historians, dive bomber enthusiasts, SBD Dauntless and Helldiver fans, VMSB-133 descendants and legacy collectors, and military patch collectors who honor the combat heritage of Marine Corps scout bombing squadrons.
Dive, strike, destroy — VMSB-133 hit the mark.
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.
