Hello, I recently acquired a collection of World War II memorabilia from a relative that was in the service during the war. I have identified most of the items in the collection. The item in question is a squadron patch. The patch is in the shape of a shield. The background is a blueish-purple color. Across the top are the words, CAN DO. There is a silver glove with three yellow wings gripping a bomb which is pointed down toward a silver Swastika that is starting to break apart. I will welcome any help in finding out the unit or squadron that this patch commemorates. Thanks in advance for any help. Brad I can email to anyone a picture of the patch, I just cannot figure out how to post a photo here. Thanks again

P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget pounding on something with a hammer.

S: Took hammer away from midget.
