hirsca Posted April 11, 2014 Share #1 Posted April 11, 2014 Recent find. A quick search could not find an image of the logo that is on the pennant. It still has the WW2 Hap Arnold logo on the Falcon's flight helmet. Was this a very early design of the USAF Academy logo, or is it for something else? All comments much appreciated. Thanks, Al.

maddog1129 Posted July 7, 2014 Share #5 Posted July 7, 2014 I think it's a pretty early version of a falcon mascot cartoon character for USAFA. Maybe 1960's. Let me see what I can find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddog1129 Posted July 8, 2014 Share #6 Posted July 8, 2014 I found a photo in Jack Engeman's "Air Force Academy: The life of a cadet" depicting the same cartoon football-helmeted falcon mascot character. The character is repeated 3 times on a sweatshirt a cadet is considering buying for a little brother. The latest date in the book is 1962. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
