Many of the patches on this page are not offical SR-71 patches, they are the kind that you can find in gift shops around the world so just keep your eyes open for anything different, it would help if you could send me pictures of the patches I don't have listed on this page.
I am willing to buy any patches you may have that have to do with the SR-71 just send me an e-mail.
IF you are interested in buying or trading for any of these patches email me.
Thanks to John Stone for additional information. John Stone's Lockheed Blackbird Page
