QED4 Posted November 3, 2020 Share #1 Posted November 3, 2020 I came across this picture in a magazine sometime back and made a copy of it, the caption gave no information other than his name and that he was in the AAF. I assume the patch is just a trick of the light but it is decided so perfectly in half I am not sure. Any one ever seen anything like this before, anyway I thought it was interesting and wonder if there really is patch out there some where like this.

mortaydc60 Posted November 3, 2020 Share #2 Posted November 3, 2020 Most likely the reversed version with the gold/yellow background instead of blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan H. Posted November 3, 2020 Share #3 Posted November 3, 2020 I think you are looking at a standard US made AAF patch that has been folded in half and pressed. That is why there is such a pronounced line down the center. I think the color differences in the patch are due to the way that the camera and film interpreted the variance in shade.

Paulruss Posted November 4, 2020 Share #4 Posted November 4, 2020 I would agree with the fold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortaydc60 Posted November 4, 2020 Share #5 Posted November 4, 2020 Maybe someone will say it is the ultra rare half yellow and half blue version. Actually think the fold maybe the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QED4 Posted November 4, 2020 Author Share #6 Posted November 4, 2020 Yes, I am pretty sure it is just the film reacting to the light but it would be interesting to find a two color patch like that. Also notice it appears to have an OD boarder which is the same shade of gray on both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
