This patch is worn by one of the crewmembers at RIAT 2018 & was acquired through one of the Squadrons based at Davis-Monthan. This was first seen and worn in 2016 by Col. John Beatty at an official command handover ceremony, & this is where the picture is taken from.

Partly embroidered on twill with a merrowed edge, backed with hook & loop with the Giant in Dexter.

This patch was manufactured in 2014 and is a design made up from the Arizona State flag, which is really colourful.

Fully embroidered with a merrowed edge, backed with hook & loop with the Giant in Dexter. A difficult patch to find too.
