Usually, there is patch provided by the payload sponsor/contractor; sometimes, patch is provided by the launch vehicle contractor; and since the early 90's, Air Force organizations (launch squadrons or space wings) have been creating patches.

I have figured out one way to solve some of these "problems" by collecting scans or photos of these patches or even a decal representative of the patch. Anytime a patch comes on Ebay, I save a copy of the photo, in case I don't win the auction. I wish I had done this much earlier. I have also used Worthpoint to look for past action photos.

I was wondering if we can crowd source this to expand the database by trading and sharing patches/photos.

The file named "ELV Patch Compendium" is a summary of my patch database. The first page is an explanation of the data entries.

In the end, this is my ranking in order of desirability:

• patch
  
• patch image
  
• decal of patch
  
• decal of patch image
  
• other mission representation in decal or image form.
