This was VP 415's Crew 1 Crest in the late 1970's; the "Gropers."
Toying around a few 415 crests...from my "home" Argus Squadron.
Each letter is a hand-made separate vector shape so, like all of my computer generated drawings, it's very labor intensive.
Why Crew 1? My Uncle, Harold G, was the TACCO ... so there's a little personal connection I suppose...and...the Groper is a neat fish! I understand this crest was deemed to be -ahem- "inappropriate" by the brass and it's use was disallowed...only to get re-approved later again! YA GOTTA LOVE THAT SPIRIT OF TRADITION PEOPLE!!!
