Guys,
here is the second attempt to pimp up a Pike Brothers helmet bag.
It features the squadron insignia for the 433 TFS, 8 TFW, also known as "Satan's Angels", stationed at RTAFB Ubon, Thailand.
The overall artwork is kind of a hommage to their CO, Col. Robin Olds, and features the name of his F-4, with which he downed two Migs on 20 May 1967. Spook, the F-4 mascot, therefore does not show the usual letters "II" but two stars. I am tempted to add a moustache, as it was Olds personal "trademark"...
As you will have surely noticed, this bag has not been washed, yet, so the artwork is crisp and sharp.
My wife has told me that I can't keep them all, so this one is for sale. If somebody is interested and wants something added (name stencil etc.) just let me know.
Best regards,
Ties
