I did a little research and found the most likely place the patch would have come from was an AWACS squadron based in Germany. So I figured what the heck, I'll send a letter to the commanding general's office of that area and see if I could get some more information. That was a few weeks ago. I just got this response.
Classification: NATO UNCLASSIFIED releasable to INTERNET Good morning Sir, please excuse my late reply to your inquiry but I was otherwise involved and had no time to take care of it. There is a very simple explanation to how and why the patch was created back in the days. Alizee was some years ago in Mazar-e-Sharif to "entertain" the troops with her famous music. Based on that event numerous patches from all different units working down there were created with using the red fish as a symbol for Alizee. There was never an official patch created based on that. Please contact me for any further questions... Best Regards, Stabsfeldwebel Ingo Senft, OW3B Deutsche Luftwaffe No. 3 Squadron EXEC / NATO medal POC / ST-scheduling Deputy CSE ST Evaluator Ext: 0049/2451-63***** Mobile: 0049/157316***** Now I find it hard to believe she was in Afghanistan, mainly because I'm sure we would've heard about it. If she did go , it would have been mostly to support French troops, but most likely she would have seen troops from several countries. Still I don't believe she was there and am wondering if this guy is just b s ing me or has her confused with someone else. |
