In the famous picture of his men carrying Olds on their shoulders,besides the 8th TFW patch on his front,can anybody ID the shoulder sleeve patches? Would one be the Satins Angel patch.(left sleeve)?

Thank you for your help.

You can't see it but left shoulder would have a nice 100 mission patch with a MIG Qualifyed tab under it as I recall. I believe a forum member has his WSO's patch of that.

Here's a pic of the right sleeve patch. This patch was used by many units and denotes those that have been fired at by a surface to air missile.
