So we will be keeping the Yellow Notification up through EARLY JULY!!
As we will be doing 4 shows over the next 3 weekends, and I will be on then road with most of our Military Artifacts from 6/18 to as late as 7/04 so there could be delays in shipping!!

We Hope to FINALLY Have this Issue CORRECTED by July or August!!
If you would like to PAY for an Artifact with a CREDIT CARD, please email and I will get an invoice emailed to you ASAP!

ARTIFACT:
NOTE: All of these USN patches being listed on
consignment with consignor code CON-DSS come from the lifelong collection of a
retired Vietnam War USN Pilot who had close times with the Tailhook Association
and was able to obtain some very special and unique patches. We are proud to
have been given the opportunity to bring parts of this collection to market. We
will be listing 25 or so now, and hope to have another offering in April or
May.
What we have here is a rare ca 1947 USN VF-6A Fighter Squadron 6A Large fully embroidered Flight Jacket Patch, apparently removed from flight clothing.
This Squadron was established as VBF-5 at Klamath Falls on 8 May 1945, then reestablished as VF-6A on 15 November 1946, and reestablished as VF-52 on 16 August 1948. The unit was disestablished on 23 February 1959. This insignia was used from 1947 until 1949. VF-6A flew F8F Bearcats. The name on back does not appear to have belonged to the original wearer.
