Don’t you have a patched jacket like the one in “Bridges at Tokyo Ri ?
Or is that another VLJ member ?

That is, from left to right, William Anders, Frank Borman and James Lovell (wearing the G-1), i.e. the crew of Apollo 8. Only Jim Lovell is still with us to this day.

Yeah actually the photo is floating around on the net for quiet some time already - i actually snatched it from an APOLLO page ...

I like those cool dudes hanging out in something it is possibly a briefing or debrief and having in mind how significant their service was makes it even more "cool"

Their history is that fascinating i got myself a repro of the squadron patch ...

Definitely the exact patch …. That one would look great on one of your jackets if you decide to patch one .
