Jeffro Posted March 29, 2017 Share #5 Posted March 29, 2017 There's a list of squadron members as well, but I didn't see your man listed. Maybe someone running the sight will have more information. Jeffro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffro Posted March 31, 2017 Share #7 Posted March 31, 2017 Rick, you are welcome and please keep showing us your USN and USMC squadron patches! The forum never has enough of them to satisfy me and some of my fellow USN squadron patch collectors. You've been pumping a lot of life into the Shoulder Sleeve Insignia & Patches section lately and everyone appreciates it. Jeffro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
