decwriter Posted November 17, 2020 Share #1 Posted November 17, 2020 I posted this in the unknown, can you identify section earlier tonight, but this is probably the better venue to try and identify the patch. The bombardier died in 1952 and served in WW II. I received the cloth patch today that came from a collection of medals, wings, rank, etc. A preliminary search on the internet didn’t reveal anything. The patch measures 5 inches and appears to have been on a jacket as evidenced by the stitching on the edges. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

decwriter Posted November 17, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted November 17, 2020 Thanks for the reply! After your response, I found a repro patch on eBay and a leather version on flyingtigerantiques.com with different versions of a bomb at the tail. They're not identical, so I have no idea if this was a prototype version. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
