I am looking for a 437th Fighter Interceptor Squadron patch, or any other 437th marked memorabilia, flight suits, jackets, hats or even cigarette lighters, from the 1952-54 time period when the unit was with the Air Defense Command and stationed at Otis AFB on Cape Cod. My father flew with the 437th as a radar operator in F-94Cs during the times outlined. I am also looking for a 307th ARS patch from 1954-57 time period. I need these patches to complete the rebuild of my father's USAF career shadow box. I have attached photos of the patches.
My father served in the 437th FIS while [then] Major Daniel "Chappie" James Jr, (1952-55) was its commander.

Leave your message with name, phone number and what you're calling about...... NO TEXTs - the phone doesn't receive texts...texts are BLOCKED!!! Got it? or you may email me at Craigslist.
