Hello everyone

Been working hard over the last year or so to get my patch collection up to date on my Flickr site.

You can view the 'photostream' here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/gingercak ... ollection/

or individual albums here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/gingercak ... ion/albums

Hope it's of interest.
best Wishes
James

Hi Hugo

Many thanks for the feedback!

I collect anything that takes my fancy! .....but I do like helicopter stuff, especially French Navy and the various Italian Air Arms.

Cheers
James

I also followed and you followed back, youve inspired me to add a patch section to my flickr too. If you ever wanna part with the 2015 JMSDF P1 deployment patch i have a spare kidney ;)

Chopper 92. I found a site that may help your helicopter collection, especially identifying patches, periods, stories behing them etc.

Hi T1 - Many thanks for the kind words, much appreciated. Glad people are finding it of interest.

Chopper92 - I get the patches from all over the place - Airshows, eBay, direct from units, fellow collectors from around the world. All sorts!

The Jolly Green website that Tronk 11 posted is an excellent website.

Cheers
James
