Officially Licensed USMC VMF-351 Original Devil Dog Patch — Marine Fighter Squadron 351 Embroidered Patch
The Original Devil Dog — VMF-351's fierce WWII fighter legacy.
Marine Fighter Squadron 351 (VMF-351) was a United States Marine Corps fighter squadron that served during World War II and the postwar era. Carrying the fierce "Devil Dog" identity — the legendary nickname earned by Marines at Belleau Wood in 1918 — VMF-351 flew the iconic F4U Corsair, the gull-winged fighter that became the symbol of Marine air power in the Pacific Theater. The squadron's adoption of the "Original Devil Dog" moniker connected their aerial combat mission to the deepest traditions of Marine Corps warrior culture.
The F4U Corsair gave VMF-351 a decisive advantage in air-to-air combat, with its powerful Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engine, six .50-caliber machine guns, and superior high-altitude performance making it one of the most lethal fighters in the Pacific. Marine Corsair squadrons compiled an extraordinary kill ratio against Japanese aircraft while also excelling in the close air support mission, delivering bombs, rockets, and strafing runs in support of Marine ground forces during the bloody island-hopping campaigns. VMF-351's Devil Dog legacy represents the fusion of Marine ground combat ferocity with the precision and daring of carrier-based fighter aviation.
Perfect For: WWII Marine fighter aviation historians, F4U Corsair enthusiasts, VMF-351 descendants and legacy collectors, Devil Dog tradition supporters, and military patch collectors who honor the original fighter squadrons of the Marine Corps.
Devil Dogs in the sky — VMF-351 carried the fight.
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.
