vintageproductions Posted May 21, 2020 Share #2 Posted May 21, 2020 I believe it is a Navy unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerradtgrant Posted May 21, 2020 Share #3 Posted May 21, 2020 Maybe US Navy VPB29 it is identified as that a few places, but didn't dig around to much to [emoji817] percent confirm that. Sent from my motorola edge plus using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt-M Posted May 21, 2020 Share #4 Posted May 21, 2020 It's a WW2 VT-29 (torpedo) squadron. Nice patch ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brownie63 Posted May 11 Share #6 Posted May 11 I concur its VT-29. Torpedo bomber squadron assigned to the USS Cabot (CVL-28) from November 1944 until the end of WWII. One of my close friend's grandfather was a pilot flying in a TBM Avenger, paired up with an F6F Hellcat when he was KIA on January 12, 1945 attacking a Japanese oil tanker. If you ever want to get rid of that patch, let me know. I'd love to get it for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
