1st CCS & 1st CCG patches

[Yardstick]

Here are 3 versions each of the 1st Combat Cargo Group and the 1st Combat Cargo Squadron patches. The first examples are 20+ years old (hence the aging of the leather) but have been updated recently in the light of better info on the originals. The remainder are as accurate as I can make them in terms of materials and construction.

Interesting point of detail I recently discovered from some very high res images is that on some versions of the 1st CCS patch, the border is navy blue not black as it usually appears in many images.

In the RCN Navy blue means black. Our combat pants and jackets were "navy blue" but in reality they were black. So dark blue they were black. But I digress.

For reference the below are images of original patches (along with others) that I used to recreate my versions.

The composite detail is amazing thank you!
