None.

This is from a USAAF collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VAX16 LHEX12/16 SHJX07/21

6 (Fine+): The patch shows moderate to heavy wear and soiling, moth nip at 7 0'clock or clipped during removal, light color bleed on white star, light adhesive residue on reverse, great been there look!

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
