Fine, then I get first dibs when I find a squadron of low, unescorted B-25s ;)


Hah! Typical of the brits to single out one aircraft for slaughter...

I understand -- can't really blame her for that.

However, there are these low-end MA-1's for $35.  No one will mind you sewing things on a $35 jacket. :)

Hey Brooke,

Do you have a link somewhere for ordering previous campaign patches?

I do, but I'm way, way behind on everything, so I'll send out e-mails to everyone once I'm caught up on how to get things.

The link is in my signature.  :aok

I had a decent quality denim I got with a bunch or ragged/shredded bass pro shop and harley davidson patches. Pulled those off and put on some scenario patches. Looks halfway decent! Doesn't hurt that it's a similar cut/fit to A-2 type jacket, I guess.

I still have a couple more patches to put on.... I just get lazy about it  :bolt:

Although to date I think I've gotten 4 different positive comments from strangers about it. Sometimes I forget I'm wearing it until somebody mentions it  ;)


P.S. That centerpiece in the back is a 71 Squadron crest. I was able to find a decent one online. Apparently there's a modern squadron with 71 Sqn herritage, that every so often has the pilots wear the old patch (to teach the pilots to respect their predecessors that have served before them, or something), and I was able to buy one from a guy that makes them for the pilots via e-mail correspondence.
