mvmhm Posted October 16, 2015 Share #3 Posted October 16, 2015 Those are some odd ducks..there wasn't (as far as I know) an Army Air Field in Elyria (which is near Cleveland)...maybe they were meant to be souvenir patches???? Mark sends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchcollector Posted October 16, 2015 Share #4 Posted October 16, 2015 Cool patches,they look to be chainstitched.My first thought when I saw them was "training related".Did they do any training there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIl Sanow Posted October 16, 2015 Share #5 Posted October 16, 2015 I live in Elyria and never saw anything like them. No training here that I know of. I wonder if the wearer was from Elyria. G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1SG_1st_Cav Posted October 16, 2015 Share #6 Posted October 16, 2015 I'm only three miles from Gil. Those look to be WWI-era wings, not WWII. I would contact the Lorain Historical Society to see what they may know. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted October 16, 2015 Share #7 Posted October 16, 2015 Any CPT training at local air ports? I have a hand embroidered shirt to a CPT student usung the gold wing and prop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocsfollowme Posted October 16, 2015 Share #8 Posted October 16, 2015 I am sure they are WWII since it says Allied Air Force. I am leaning CPT or possibly sweetheart related. I love them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
