VRC-30 direct uniform embroidered patch on coveralls find at flea market

[Tonomachi]

I picked this up at the flea market yesterday. I've never seen such a large direct embroidered patch before on a uniform. I'm guessing there was a flag on the left shoulder where there is a rectangle piece of Velcro but does anyone know what circular patch would have been worn on the right shoulder? Maybe a former unit.

I would guess that the right shoulder circular patch would be the C-2 Greyhound patch. planecrazyent.com should have both the flag and C-2 patches for sale. Hope this helps.

Nice looking flight suit. I am pretty sure it would be a round C-2 patch. I am also certain it would not be a previous unit patch.

 

I see that he is a Commander. He was probably the Skipper or XO of VRC-30. This is a Navy unit not a USAF unit.

 

Probably a patch just like this one.

Thanks for everyone's help.

Cool flight suit! Great markings!

The year of the flight suit may be 2005 based on the spec. tag. VRC-30 Providers is the squadron.

I like his call sign derived from his last name. Nothing gets overlooked when it comes time to tag someone...
