USAAF 76TH FIS/AVG SHOULDER PATCH

This high-quality reproduction patch honors the historic legacy of the 76th Fighter Squadron, originally part of the legendary American Volunteer Group (AVG), famously known as the "Flying Tigers." Formed in the summer of 1941 by Claire Lee Chennault, the AVG comprised three fighter squadrons of American pilots serving in the Chinese Air Force before the U.S. officially entered World War II.

The 76th Squadron remained active in the China-Burma-India (CBI) Theater from July 18, 1942, to August 11, 1945. It earned a Distinguished Unit Citation for its courageous missions over China in June 1944.

This modern reproduction patch measures 5 inches in height and features the iconic insignia proudly worn by members of the squadron. It's perfect for collectors, history enthusiasts, or as a standout piece on a flying jacket or flight suit. Excellent new condition. All items sold are 100% guaranteed.
