That's unusual for an AAF case to have something other than the winged star emblem. I have a few from Keesler as well (I was an instructor there from 1984-1989). Always nice to find them with the shipping carton too.

You're right.To see Ground Forces patch with an AAF unit is pretty unusual.I wonder if it was a manufacture error? Depending on how fast it was caught there mat not be to many around.Very cool find.
