Officially Licensed US Navy VP-741 Patch
A Korean War-era patrol squadron badge — reproduced from the originals who flew maritime patrol out of P-5 Marlins.
VP-741 was a U.S. Navy patrol squadron that operated the Martin P-5 Marlin flying boat during the Korean War era, conducting maritime patrol, anti-submarine warfare, and ocean surveillance missions. The Marlin was one of the last operational flying boats in the Navy’s inventory, and VP-741’s crews flew long-range patrols over vast stretches of open ocean. This officially licensed reproduction captures the squadron’s original insignia — the alligator with bomb design.
Perfect For:
VP-741 veterans and descendants, Navy maritime patrol aviation historians, P-5 Marlin enthusiasts, and vintage military patch collectors.
