This from my son in North Bay…Doug F Dad, Your friend has intrigued the air force historian here in North Bay and he has sent this out to his network of experienced and qualified air force guys. He is in touch with Kathy on a couple of things so far and he has also shared some info regarding her nephew. I'm confident that they can answer the question of the patch, and more. Thanks for putting her in touch with the right guys. Cheers, Son From: Tim.Feick2@xxxxxxxxxxxx To: tim.feick@xxxxxxxxxxx Subject: FW: 411 - RFI - RCAF / USAF crest or patch Date: Tue, 2 Dec 2014 21:34:16 +0000 Tim Feick Operations Officer | Officier des Opérations Captain | Captaine The Algonquin Regiment (North Bay & Timmins ON) National Defence | Défense Nationale North Bay, Ontario, Canada On Nov 30, 2014, at 2:18 PM, Frank <fbirch@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> If you have any information about this crest/patch, please pass onto Kathy >> >> >> From: Kathy Coutts [mailto:kcoutts@xxxxxxxxxx] >> Sent: November 28, 2014 3:23 PM >> To: director@xxxxxxxxxxx >> Subject: RCAF crest or patch >> >> Good afternoon, >> We have a crest/patch in our artifact collection that I’m hoping you can >> help identify.
