| Here is an example of a 612th A2 from one of our NARA photos.  This is from a crew photo ("Heavy Date") which can be viewed here - [/Gallery/NARA/Crews/images/65430c.jpg|http://www.401bg.org/Gallery/NARA/Crews/images/65430c.jpg]  I am unsure if the squadron insignia is painted or a patch on this A2...<br/> <br/> The above image includes  "Heavy Date" A2 artwork which can also be seen here - [http://www.401bg.org/Gallery/NARA/A2/images/65457.jpg]<img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='http://401bg-Org/Forum/images/OldForum/612_A2.jpg' /><br/> <br/> There are several similar examples in the NARA photos; Take your time looking through them and I am certain you can find more.  65434A is another fine example.  Send me an email if you need higher resolution of any of the NARA photos.<br/>  <br/> Hope this helps! <br/><br/><br/>
