Does anyone recognize this patch?

It's vintage, has a selvedged border, and is fully-embroidered with a bare cloth back. It measures 4 1/2" across.

This is from the 14th Cadet Squadron at the US Air Force Academy. These squadrons all have their own patches and they are very well designed and are periodically updated.

Great reference at Wikipedia.

Thanks Ben. So it's not space related.

No, not directly. I would not be surprised if an astronaut came out of that unit sometime during history.

All times are CT (US)
