manayunkman Posted October 18, 2011 Share #2 Posted October 18, 2011 The bird is a Navy squadron that was carrier based and flew Corsairs. I wish I knew the squadron number but I forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Signor Posted June 19, 2012 Share #7 Posted June 19, 2012 The "Jolly Rogers" patch you posted in "NOT" a Navy patch , it is one of the "variations" the USAAF WW-2 90th Bombardment Group designs they used , check the 90th BG sites and you'll see it there I'm sure . The Bird is still not quite nailed down as I've seen 3 different "designations , it is "37" but one ID was a "VF' , another was a "VT" and the last was a "VC" , I believe it to be the "VC" but have yet to find a photo to verify it possitively.
