ARTIFACT:
This is a remarkable example of a 390th Fighter Squadron, 366th Fighter Group, 9th Air Force Jacket Patch. In January 1944, the 366th Fighter Group arrived in England and flew its first combat mission as a group on March 14th. Early operations involved fighter sweeps over France until the Normandy invasion when the group shifted to a ground support mission. Three days later, the 366th served as the lead air unit attacking German positions near St. Lo, France. The invasion established an Allied foothold in Europe and soon the 366th Fighter Group moved to a base on French soil. The group then followed Allied ground advances, periodically moving to new bases in freshly conquered territory, to remain close to the action. In December 1944, the group participated in the Battle of the Bulge attacking German forces and flying armed reconnaissance missions.
