Officially Licensed USMC VMFA-513 Flying Nightmares Patch — Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 513 Embroidered Patch
The Flying Nightmares — from Korean War night fighters to daytime strike fighters.
VMFA-513 "Flying Nightmares" carries the lineage of VMF(N)-513, the famed Korean War night fighter squadron that scored the first jet-versus-jet night aerial victory in history using the F3D Skyknight. Redesignated as VMFA-513, the squadron transitioned to the fighter attack role, operating jet fighters in air-to-air and air-to-ground missions. The Flying Nightmares name carried forward the squadron's reputation for operating in the most challenging conditions. From radar-guided night intercepts over Korea to modern fighter attack operations, VMFA-513 represented the continuous evolution of Marine Corps tactical aviation.
Perfect For:
VMFA-513 Flying Nightmares veterans, Korean War aviation historians, night fighter heritage enthusiasts, F3D Skyknight legacy fans, and USMC fighter attack evolution patch collectors.
Flying Nightmares. VMFA-513. Nightmares never end.
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.
