Wild Weasel patches

Are the attached Wild Weasel patches generic to many squadrons who flew WW missions or did particular squadrons wear these?

What would the "C" flight have been referring to. The pins shown elsewhere were found with the patches.

Any idea as to value of these patches?

 

Thank you

C flight was used by the 17 WWS. The WW 3 was probably used by the same unit, but could have been used by other units flying the F-105F/G. Both look 70s Thai made to my eye. The presence of the B-58 era Mach Crow pin tells me these may have come from an Electronic Warfare Officer. The EWO occupied the rear seat of the WW and specialized in tracking SAM data. The arrowhead pin was issued by the F-105 maker, Republic.
