Mitch Posted April 22, 2017 Share #1 Posted April 22, 2017 Hi guys, I have not posted for awhile. I purchased a mixed bag of patches at the SOS and e-bay a few months ago and Im just getting around to showing them. All 4 are Japanese made. Any questions let me know. Comments welcome.

firefighter Posted April 23, 2017 Share #3 Posted April 23, 2017 My great looking patches. The 312 looks USA made to me. The Order of the Mule, VF-142 is really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Order of the Mule, VF-142 is really cool.Hi FF, You may be right on the 312. I get a little fuzzy on these made in this time frame. To me it was shiny , real fine mesh to the back and the back is covered with the stiffener I have seen on Japanese made patches. I'm always learning and welcome comments.

Either way, a great patch. If you've never seen the movie 'The Great Santini' you should check it out. Robert Duval becomes the COmof the 312.

Mitch Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share #7 Posted April 25, 2017 Hi FF, I am tending to agree with you.US made. Probably made mid 60's . I will check out the movie. I think I saw it awhile ago. Thanks again. Regards, Mitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
