BROBS Posted November 13, 2013 Share #1 Posted November 13, 2013 What the heck is this? I won it on ebay ... regardless of what it is I had to have it. Searching around I can't find much of anything on what this could be? Could it be Northrop F-5 related? thanks for any input, -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BROBS Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share #4 Posted November 13, 2013 haha really? any link? thanks, Brian edit: nevermind I found the link. I don't think that ID was correct or confirmed. I believe this to be a military patch, personally... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uberguido Posted November 13, 2013 Share #5 Posted November 13, 2013 any idea what it says under the fragrant 5? theres a word there I just cant make it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted November 13, 2013 Share #6 Posted November 13, 2013 any idea what it says under the fragrant 5? theres a word there I just cant make it out.Looks like "Legion" or "Region". Might be USAF pilot training related, they have a lot of similar stuff. Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabrejet Posted November 13, 2013 Share #8 Posted November 13, 2013 Lockheed "Skunk Works" related? Here's their logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BROBS Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share #9 Posted November 13, 2013 Randy, I was thinking aviation related as well.. I was wondering if perhaps a nickname for the F-5 was the Fragrant 5? It appears to say "Region" underneath from what I can tell. I do not have the patch in hand yet. -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uberguido Posted November 13, 2013 Share #10 Posted November 13, 2013 Lockheed "Skunk Works" related? Here's their logo. Skunk works was the first thing that came to mind with me too. how is being "fragrant" a cool nickname for pilots? normally they try to give themselves a real Rambo nickname don't they Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
