My last jacket G1 and its patches

My last G1 and its numerous patches (it's a book ). It's a Ralph Edouard, 1962. This jacket certainly is associated with the vietnam war.

Very nice G-1. It belonged to a flight surgeon by the looks of the Leather Name plate.

Nice patches!! Love the HC-130H "Skyhook" patches.

Thanks for sharing ! Some of the patches are of later origin, jugding from the "Bonnie Dick" patch I would say late sixties to early 70's.

I think I read somewhere that at one time the Captain of the Bon Homme Richard was a Commander Morrison, father of Jim Morrison of The Doors. Would that be correct ?
