[jbmilart]

Here is my version of the 430th Fighter Squadron patch... just finished today... I'm trying to complete the entire 474th Fighter Group's squadron patches... working on the 429th patch now... should have it done in about a couple of days... The leather patch is 5 inches diameter... just like my 428th patch....... Jim

Chantix or Chantex? Swear by it. I quit easily with it a few years ago but started back up again. Worked again for my new year resolution. Think it's expensive here? Almost 10 bucks in Massachusetts when I left a couple of years ago.
