VPU-2 Patches
NOTICE: "...Hi. This request goes to former members of Special Projects Patrol Squadron 2 (VPU-2) in the early to mid 1990s. I am looking for an example of the VPU-2 squadron patch that depicts the Wizard with a fully detailed face and white beard. I need this patch for a Poster Project I have been working on for about 6 years now. This poster will show every squadron patch of EVERY unit that either has operated or still does operate the P-3 Orion. I will even have all 4 of the Patrol and Reconnaissance Wing patches on the poster too! I want to be sure the VPU squadrons are well represented, so I need an early version of the VPU-2 patch. Is there someone out there who served with VPU-2 and has an extra copy of one of these patches in a drawer? I'd appreciate hearing from you if you do! Thanks!...Jim Turnbull dxorion@nbnet.nb.ca..."
