(Korean): The 70FS is an inactive United States Air Force squadron. The Squadron was constituted on 14 Dec 1940 as the 70th Pursuit Squadron (Interceptor). This squadron was activated on 1 Jan 1941 and patrolled the airspace around Fiji. After the war, the squadron was declared inactivated on 26 Dec 1945. The 70TFS was reinstated on 8 Sep 1975 and renamed the 70th Fighter Squadron until retired on 1 Nov 1991. It was most recently reactivated and became part of the 347th Wing at Moody Air Force Base, GA. It operated Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II aircraft conducting ground attack missions. This patch was found in a Korean embroidery shop in very limited quantities, has the “in-theater-made” feel to it, and does not come with velcro attached.
