One day... I also used to collect patches and have amassed thousands of them from all different aircraft. I have them in boxes stored way. Again, one day...

thanks for confirming the colors....i started as a kid back in the '50's and quit...why i can't remember. then a few years back i started getting "coined"... i don't have many, but the ones i'v got are thru close association with the "coiners". the traditions behind the patches and the coins keeps me in tune with all the things the airforce has meant to me for all these years. i have a lot of great memories and have been there when a few things became history....such is the life of a photograher
