A USCG Air Station Cape Cod Presidential Security Detail patch

[Patchcollector]

Greetings fellow patch aficionados,

Here is an interesting piece,a patch for the Security Detail that guarded President Bush during the years 1989 to 1992.

The Detail probably was active whenever President Bush visited his vacation house in Kennebunkport Maine.It's a nice big patch,

and a welcome addition to my collection as I have a soft spot for the "Coastie" stuff,especially the unusual pieces like this one.

That is an awesome piece... every time I think about the day I enlisted, I kick myself for not walking into a Coast Guard office instead.

Thanks man!What you wrote resonates with me.I remember when I was thinking about joining the military,my boss at the time told me to choose the Coast Guard.

I ended up going into the Air Force,where I had some great times,but at times I still wonder if I should have heeded his advice.

It is a great looking patch, but these were not worn on any uniforms. A cool item to have though, and super rare.
