Here's a example of what were talking about, this a White NAME Tape on a shirt of the Ryukyus Command early to mid 60s, a Hand Guided Sewing machine job, Letters fluctuate in appearance, in this case slightly, though there are examples of the Letters nice and neat and Uniform throughout using the machines of the day.   Could be a local PX made one, where the tailors are locals most of the times out there in the Far East, or a Civilian off post Okinawa Tailor job.

USS RECOVERY (ARS-43) Rescue-Salvage ship Life Ring (preserver)        I have one each from the BOLSTER (ARS-38) & CONSERVER (ARS-39) too around here somewhere with the strobe lights attached.   Note the Life Ring mounted on the bulkhead above the brow              

Okay — I’ve read all the post about the screaming eagle patches. I got these at an auction— multigenerational military family. I know for sure one individual went to WWII, his son was a cadet in Easy Company after World War II (during the 1950s), both went to Korea to serve. These particular patches were in a basement for about 50 years, according to the auction company. This individual also had Apollo mission patches that appear to have been on some type of board. I found 2 All American patches — one appears to have come off a uniform based on the threads.    Knowing this information — could you please help me determine how to talk about these patches? Would you call them repos? I know they made repos but Im wondering if they’re real based on the family. There appear to be two different types of screaming eagle patches. 

I though that only Camillus had screw on pommels on their first model, and later replaced due to problems on filed with the cross pin construction. Am I wrong?

Oh cool. Movies with jeeps!  France Nuyen played Elaann of Troyus in one of the more memorable episodes of the original, and still by far the best, Star Trek. I had the pleasure of meeting her at a sci-fi convention years ago. I think I have a photo with her somewhere but can’t find it.  mikie

Not sure if you'll have some luck but its worth a shot, try looking around for any clothing retailers particular single store outlets or maybe even thrift stores if you have any near you. 

He told me the bike was a Limited Edition Harley. It was nice but needed a brown saddle seat rather than black.
