OK, creative minds.

It's time for a patch design for Battle Over Germany.

Here are what past patch designs look like:

Doesn't matter if Axis is on top or not. We know what happened.

The Eagle/Hawk patch is great as is. How I see it is very symbolic. You have the Bird (plane) associated with Germany above the Bird(plane yet again) associated with the US basically as if US Bombers/ German Fighters. The right/left is good for the East/West relationship between the two locations, Also the countries height relationship is good because the only American things in this scenario were the planes over Germany. Only thing I'd change would be to swab the Eagle/Hawk's colors with each other since there is no blue with germany's colors.

Looks good, but patches are 3" in diameter, and thread is not that high a resolution.

The bird heads as drawn would not work, although an outline or solid shape might.

Picky picky! :)

For you LW on top guys.  Make your own!  :)  The thinking was the USAAF was flying from West to East so the Star was on the west side and the LW marking was on the east.   The Luftwaffe was having to rise to meet the attackers.  So the Eagle attacking and the Hawk rising to the fight seemed to make sense to me.

My vote goes to the original w/ the birds' faces. The design looks badarse as hell while still retaining a lot of symbolism.

Brooke is the man to get them done, and his experience with it tells him the original birds won't work.

However it ends up I will take one for sure.

Now the 1'st one if I can get it in a resolution to do a T-Shirt, I would love that.
