Lot of three WWII/Korean War era Army Air Corp/Air force patches plus and 101st patch. All are in VG++ condition. These are no reproductions but period pieces.

Questions & Comments
My dad was in the Korean war, and he was shot twice and had 2 purple hearts and many other patches and pins, but when I was just a baby our house burned down and lost them all. Once I was older I brought them up once we found a new house but they were lost in the fire! Oh I can't remember the name of the movie but while in Korea there was a movie made about it and my dad was chosen to be the driver for the general in the movie! Oh I wish I had all of those things! We lost all of our things and then when I was 12 he was in a bad motorcycle wreck that did a bad number on him. He went to a hospital out of town where he would have the best drs. He lived but the brain damage was so severe that after all of that and he got somewhat better, long story but we lost him from it when I was 15. I still love him and I thank you for the memory. Have a wonderful and profitable auction! Namaste Dovey
Thank you so much! He was always my hero! I still miss him. What is sad is he died on December 7 buried the 11th and then my mom had been in hospital with bronchitis and the day she got out, I waited until the next day to call her as I live 5 hours away and can't drive so I called her and she could not talk at all so we hung up and I called my sister that lived close just a mile away and I told her about mom and asked her to go check on her well she carried her out and took her back and she was on life support for a nurse had cross contaminated and she was gone by 9pm. She died on December 22nd and buried on Christmas Eve. So I do not care for Thanksgiving or Christmas either because of how they both died same month but many years apart. Oh I bid high so I hope I win these. What is the badges for? W#hich is WW II and which is for Korean War?
I'm not 100% sure of the dates and time period. The blue patches are form the air corp, so before the US air force was created in 1947. The 101 patch I cant not date, but its from the 40's/50's era. Thanks!
