The 34BS is part of the 28BW at Ellsworth AFB, SD. It operates Rockwell B-1 Lancer aircraft providing strategic bombing capability. The 34BS is presently the 4th-oldest active squadron in the Air Force, being formed on 10 May 1917, less than a month after the United States’ entry into World War I. Members of the squadron participated in World War I, World War II, Korean War, Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. Today, the 343BS stands ready to provide combat-ready aircrews to project global power anytime in support of the Combatant Commander’s objectives. I found this patch in a Korean embroidery shop, has the ‘theater-made’ feel to it with a ‘cut-edge’ border and twill background, and does not have velcro attached.
