Brig Posted May 30, 2015 Share #5 Posted May 30, 2015 He's known to come and go for stretches that many of us consider long. He's just managed to have more of a life than most of us, I think, haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneydave Posted June 12, 2015 Share #6 Posted June 12, 2015 Well, regular job and kids do keep me busy...LOL. Was on deadline for my latest book, "In the Service of the Red Cross" which covers Walt Disney's time as a volunteer driver with the Red Cross in France following World War I. He served 10 months in France from 1918-1919. He celebrated his seventeenth birthday in a Bistro in the town of St. Cyr. I had to get the manuscript and images to the publisher in order to have books ready for a convention I will be attending in early July. Needless to say, I was busy. As for your design Johnny...never seen it before and I have nothing in my database for this one. I did key word searches for frog and winged and I had hits but nothing that comes close to the design in question. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Signor Posted June 12, 2015 Author Share #7 Posted June 12, 2015 Hey Dave, wow that's odd as I have it shown "very tiny" on a Disney comic book page series iamge , but it's too small to make out what "unit" it says ...... will try to post it here if it will load ..... Thanks much for trying and your reply , all the best !!!!!!!!!!! Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneydave Posted June 12, 2015 Share #8 Posted June 12, 2015 Walt Disney's Comics and Stories? If so, which issue? I have almost all of the ones that reprinted the insignia designs on either the front or back covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Watkins Posted June 12, 2015 Share #9 Posted June 12, 2015 Dave, I've attached the only image I have of the WDC&Stories/Nov-1943 issue that Johnny mentioned. The 'Frog' emblem is clearly visible in the lower left corner of the page, but unfortunately the text copy is unreadable. Hope this helps in I.D.'ing this design.

doinworkinvans Posted June 12, 2015 Share #14 Posted June 12, 2015 Im pretty sure that says Airdrome squadron but cant for the life of me tell what number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Signor Posted June 12, 2015 Author Share #15 Posted June 12, 2015 Yeah , I agree "Airdrome Sqd " same conclusion I came to and same about not being able to read what number , it "appears" to be a single digit number , possibly 1st or 4th but that's a "guess" ..........

doinworkinvans Posted June 13, 2015 Share #16 Posted June 13, 2015 That's exactly what I searched for....1st and 4th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Signor Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share #17 Posted June 13, 2015 Maybe 7th ........ anywhere from 1 to 9 as I mentioned it appears to only be a single digit either with the "st" "rd" "nd" or "th" on it ........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Signor Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share #18 Posted June 13, 2015 This is the issue cover that the emblem in question is shown in,November 1943 Vol 4 # 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneydave Posted June 14, 2015 Share #19 Posted June 14, 2015 I have scans of the pages for eighteen different issues of Walt Disney's Comics & Stories with the insignia pages. I am missing images from eight issues. Unfortunately, the November 1943 issue is one I don't have images for. I also don't have an ID for the Peg Leg Pete design in the bottom right corner, either. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
