VMT-18 Patch — Marine Training Squadron 18 Embroidered Patch
VMT-18 — Marine helicopter training in the early days of rotary-wing aviation.
VMT-18 was a Marine Training squadron involved in helicopter training during the formative years of Marine rotary-wing aviation. As the Marine Corps embraced helicopter warfare in the 1950s and 1960s, training squadrons like VMT-18 were essential for producing the pilots who would revolutionize battlefield mobility. Marine helicopter training squadrons developed the tactics, techniques, and procedures for assault transport, medevac, and close air support that would be tested and proven in Vietnam and every conflict that followed.
Perfect For:
VMT-18 veterans, early Marine helicopter training historians, rotary-wing aviation pioneers, Marine helicopter training pipeline alumni, and vintage USMC training squadron patch collectors.
VMT-18. Training rotary-wing Marines.
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.
