Thank youHey Brandon, the tiger one is a 14th AAF Flying Tigers patch. I’m not enough of an expert to identity the other two.
I’m asking for help because this site is full of knowledgeI don't think @917_k was being mean or unduly invasive of your privacy. The fact of the matter is we get a LOT of people who come onto this board, take advantage of its wealth of knowledge, and then disappear. It's a trend that many of us find annoying to one degree or another.
i really appreciate it.Well anyway, your post Brandon has prompted me to try to find out what the other two patches are, as much for my benefit as yours. So:
The first one (with the horseshoe): 491st Bombardment Squadron
Looks to be the 341st Bomb Group.
Looks to be the 341st Bomb Group.
So the patches make a set... the 491st BS was part of the 341st BG, which was part of the 14th AF as of 1944.
Thank you!Ok ... innocent mistake on both sides.
Glad to see you guys got it sorted out and Brandon had his questions answered.
Hopefully he’ll stick around and enjoy what this forum has to offer.
BTW... Welcome to VLJ Brandon
