Jacket Patches
Many crew members during the war would put patches
on the front, shoulders and back of their jackets. In some cases jackets
could have up to 5 patches. These patches are typically painted on
leather or sewn cloth types. They would represent everything from
the bomb group they belonged too, to the airplane's name they served
on. These patches are important to the history of the jacket and many
times we can pay a premium for jackets that still have these patches
attached or still with the jacket but separated. Please keep in mind
that we even purchase just patches if the jacket is not available.
