Akira Date's Patches
Just some ID after I fell into a rabbit hole from Twitter-
Sacto (Sacramento) County Sheriff Deputy Explorer
Metropolitan Detention Center, Bernalillo County, Albuquerque New Mexico
uh, this ID list fell apart after I quickly found the center jacket from an eBay listing for a Top Gun replica lol
It's really different from the actual ones, and even the knockoffs kinda vary.
All sources I've found for the center jacket point to Avirex, but the number and styles of patches vary. Currently, they still sell the jacket with the "M. Standle" patch (supposed to be H. Standley), but only that and the Dallas ones match.
I'm not gonna go into too much detail on how each patch differs since I'm not the most knowledgeable on military history or patch variations.
Anyways, the ones that are present, in as legit a form I can tell:
Not sure how this jacket managed to get like, three levels away from originally being a Top Gun replica, but sure
