Does anyone have pictures of the more obscure patches for Naval Air Stations like NAS Morocco or NAS Bermuda or other rare ones?

 

 

I think that I have a Bermuda,I'll try and dig it out.

Here is what I have for them. I think the Mildenhall one is pretty obscure. I got the patch when I was stationed there. The Navy left several years ago.

NAS Jacksonville circa late 1960's. And not a navy patch but I figured I'd throw one in for fans of the Corps because it's a cool patch, MCAS Kaneohe Bay circa 1960's.

I figured I'd save my favorite for last, NAS Cubi Point, this patch was purchased by a VP crew member in 1950-1951. Patch has a lot going on it. Hope these help.

The fifth is for NAF Sigonella.I had alot of trouble trying to get a nice pic of this one,the glare was really bad.Notice the Italian manufacturer.With flash.

The last two have already been posted by others,I just wanted to throw mine in the mix too,I took backside view of each.The Lakehurst I have always liked,because of the Zeppelin connection,and the MCAS Kaneohe Bay is like Bronxboymike says,just a pretty patch,it looks Japanese made.

I have a small collection of Guantamano stuff,all still in the original manufacturers wrapper.I was getting alot of glare from the flash,

so I took some without the flash,and brightened them in Photoshop.

This first is for the Naval Air Station.I think this one is older,being cut edge on twill.This one was taken with the flash on.

post-13386-1319760761.jpg

 

This one was taken with the flash off.

The second is for the Naval Station, this one looks newer.Flash was on for this pic.

Flash was off for this pic.

The third is for the Naval Base,Marine Barracks Ground Defense Force,

this one is one of my favorites!I put my hand in one of the pics to show the big size of this patch.

With flash.

The fourth one is for the Naval Base,and has the words Support and Defend on it.I think that the manufacturer of this one is scarce to find too.

No flash.

Thought we should add some of these. These were all commands that I served at during my time. All patches were purchased in the Navy Exchange on base

 

First is NAS Memphis. I was stationed there while going to ASE "A" School in 1973.
