WW-2 Leather Flying unit patches USAAF/USN/USMC

Hello members ,I'm new to the cyber world, but have 25+ years into making leather flying unit patches of the WW-2 era USAAF/USN/USMC.
I have a very good archive of images of these types of emblems both "Official" and "Unofficial" , I have sample photos that can be e mailed if you contact me as I don't know how to copy/load and don't have a scanner ,sorry, But if you e mail me you'll see that the photos of some of the many patches I've made will speak for themselves.
Thank you and I hope to hear from you ,have a great day !!!!!!!!

Einheitstablettenkasten for sale or for trade

Hello all,

I have a Einheitstablettenkasten for sale here.

This is a rare piece. I bought off a collector, never knew what it was, except I was told it was quite valuable.

I was given the estimate of $800.00 USD. This is a completed box, but there are no actual pills or tabblets in the viles! Majority of them are illegal to possess in the USA.

This piece is complete with all the tubes missing 2 out of 8 #10 viles.

This is piece is in excellent condition, box has a small chip on top from previous owner storage, the viles (Both metal and glass) are in great condition., all writing on the tubes is visible.

If you have any questions about the item please pm me.

If you are interested in a trade, I am looking for a feldKlappenschrank 33 set, or ww2 German field phone switchboard for a even trade.

Thank you for viewing!

3rd Fighter sqd(Commando) emblem colors

Hello I have a black and white zerox copy of the WW-2 USAAF 3rd Fighter Squadron (Commando) of the 3rd Group, I am seeking the proper colors to this emblem, I am not able topost the design, but it depicts a human skull (large) centered in a round background, behind the skull going from right to left a large lighting bolt and below thr jaw and behind skull a 50 Caliber machine gun facing foward with a trailing ammo belt and firing rounds one/two of which are going outside of the background.
The skull has cracks in it and the eye sockets that are lightning bolt shaped also .

I would greatly appreciate anyones help on the colors to this emblem, I have contacted several Air Commando sites and various people from the Group but so far no colors to it, it was used I believe as either a base sign and or patch, if you know of this one Please contact me, I thank you VERY much for your time and efforts and look forward to your replies !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Question SS or SA Garmaschen?

I have been offered these by a private dealer in Germany that has been very trustworthy through numerous transactions in the past. I do not collect SS or SA items and have no reference material other than the internet and this forum. I was just intrigued by these. My research has lead me to the reality that the use of these was fairly generic. The dealer says they are authentic SS and SA, but because of the language barrier, I have not been able to explain I wish to see photos of the interior. Still working on that request. Is there anything in these somewhat poor photos that would rule out or verify their origin? Thanks in advance for any ideas.
