Silver Dollar said:Hey Jon, I got a great shot of the patch on that tanker's jacket. It definitely is a p38 with a wolf riding it. In fact, the display case is right in front of the P38 itself. I'll do a little Photoshop to the correct the colors and I'll get it to you. I also took pics of a bunch of other patches you may be interested in. Lots and lots of good stuff.

Thanks 442RCT for the other P38 Squadron patch photos - are these all patches that you have painted? They're great!
Cheers,
Jon

I thought one of the P-38 wolf patches was what Silver Dollar was talking about. No, I didn't paint any of the patches shown...they were patches off the internet I downloaded for my patch/nose art/jacket archives. I think Jerome incised/painted the one on the lower left.

Or was the leather embossed or incised first to get that wonderful clean three dimensional effect ?
