    The Association of Air Force Missileers (AAFM) https://www.afmissileers.org/ is proud to announce the launch of our new and greatly improved gallery of ICBM related patches and insignia! This 12-month effort adds high-resolution images, detailed descriptions and makes accessible the vibrant history and stories behind the 4,787 images in 77 albums and serves as the authoritative source of truth about the emblems worn by those who pioneered the ICBM mission to those who serve to operate, maintain, secure and support the nuclear deterrence mission today.

    Whether you served in nuclear missiles in the past, currently wear a uniform that includes a hook & loop-backed patch or share the same passion as those who perform the mission, you now have unprecedented access to the pictures and 580,000+ words telling the stories of the official and unofficial missile-related emblems. These snapshots in time show the dedication, resolve, respect, humility and sense of humor of the men and women who proudly wore these insignia that tied them to a common purpose and mission.

    We invite you to take a tour and come back often to explore the most comprehensive and detailed forum available. AAFM wants to share your stories and hopes that visitors who might have other examples of our ICBM patch history that we may have missed or are recent additions to our missile legacy will consider donating patches, images and the summaries of their meaning for inclusion in this living gallery for future generations of Missileers. Details on how to submit are included in the gallery.

    Special thanks to AAFM members Greg Ogletree, Dennis Brooke, Gary Mead, Monte Watts, Larry Thompkins and Scott Muessig for their tireless dedication and uncounted hours of service to this project. We think you will agree that there is no comparable historical resource available anywhere else in electronic or printed format.

    Sincerely,

    Jim

    James F. Warner

    Executive Director
