Description: Big Safari is the code name for a program office at the Air Force Material Command at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. Founded in 1953, the code name "Big Safari" was classified for decades. Big Safari is responsible for aircraft specifically designed or modified for specialized missions, including a fleet of RC-135 spy planes code named RIVET JOINT. This patch is from the years when the name Big Safari was classified. The lightning bolts probably refer to electronic warfare. The hog almost certainly refers to RC-135 aircraft, which are sometimes called "hogs" because of their extended noses. The cobra may refer tot he code name COBRA BALL, which is the code name for a variation of the RC-135. The dog sniffing the man's foot may refer to the code name COMFY HOUND, which was a quarterly report of electronic warfare activities.This brand new patch is 3.5" in length, 2 7/8" in width and features a plastic backing. This patch comes from the published book:"I Could Tell You Then You Would Have To Be Destroyed By Me."
