USAF 55th RQS / Jolly Green Patch
I´ve got this patch from a UK collector but don´t know why the UK´s flag is on the background? Supposedly the 56th. RQS is stationed in Lakenheath, AFB - UK and not the 55th RQS which is stationed in Davis-Monthan AB, Arizona. Seems like this is a fake patch or the manufacturer just hit the wrong key and hit ¨55¨ instead of ¨56¨. Ups!.. Anyways, this collection's idea is to have everything made in honor to the USAF Rescue SQ's.
Got information about this item? Contact me below (comments) with your email address and I´ll get back to you ASAP! Thank you!
I too have one of these patches. Apparently it is an error patch, where a small quantity of these were incorrectly embroidered with the 55th RQS instead of the 56th RQS.
