The four patches used by the 93rd Air Refueling Squadron

description

Summary

The four patches used by the 93rd Air Refueling Squadron are painted on the back wall of their conference room. The first patch is from the 493rd Bombardment Squadron and represents the time before the unit became an aerial refueling squadron. The second patch is the original patch for the 93rd ARS which symbolically represented the mission of the squadron. The third patch, although never officially approved, was the main squadron patch worn when the unit was the formal schoolhouse while its members also maintained world-wide qualifications. The final patch is the current squadron patch worn by all members; the Pegasus symbolizes swiftness and agility, and represents the squadron’s ability to carry-out a variety of tasks within Air Mobility Command’s mission.

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
