Description
Officially Licensed MALS-36 Bladerunners Patches — Keeping the Wing Flying from Okinawa
Because the aircraft don’t maintain themselves, and the parts don’t just show up on their own.
MALS-36, the Bladerunners, is the aviation logistics backbone of Marine Aircraft Group 36, based at MCAS Futenma, Okinawa, Japan, under the 1st Marine Aircraft Wing. The Bladerunners provide intermediate-level maintenance, supply support, and munitions logistics for every flying squadron in MAG-36 — keeping Ospreys, helicopters, and everything else in the air across the Indo-Pacific. With a history stretching back to the Vietnam War (operating from Ky Ha and Phu Bai from 1965 to 1969), MALS-36 has supported combat and humanitarian operations from the Philippines to Somalia to East Timor to Iraq. Every flight hour logged by a MAG-36 aircraft has a Bladerunner wrench-turner behind it.
Perfect For: MALS-36 Bladerunners Marines past and present, MAG-36 and 1st MAW support personnel, Okinawa-based aviation maintainers, and anyone who kept the parts flowing so the flyers could fly.
No logistics, no aviation. Bladerunners keep the blades running.
