Nice Early Vietnam Era Navy Squadron Patch Grouping

Picked these up this morning for 20 bucks from a random Craigslist search last night. All were roughly removed from their garment unfortunately but what the hey, very nice anyway. With what little research I've done so far, looks like he was an A4 Skyhawk Pilot.

Quite a history with the guy who owned them whoever he was. Cuban Missile Crisis, Fire on the Forrestal, The one and only instance of a propellar driven aircraft shooting down a jet during VN (Skyraider vs. MiG) these patches were there.
