Fashionable late to this party, but I wanted to share mine.

Firstly, dice on my G-1 (thanks bn1966).

Secondly, I have a vintage sterling silver Hula girl on my LW G-1.

Finally, I have a Japanese lady doing something naughty in the bath on another G-1.

Those are quite nice! I'm having an issue with my new Vanson PLU-3 jacket: the pull tab keeps sinking below the leather edges and can be a bit difficult to grab while wearing gloves.
As much as I would love to have a naughty Japanese lady hanging from my zipper, I think going with the drilled dice might just be the ticket for the jacket. Thanks for posting all the zipper-pulls up.

Big J, I imagine some of the naval aviators stationed in Japan would have probably been equally sentimental about your lady.

Anyone know anything about this? Looks like a 15th AAF talisman. One side has 15 star, as you can see,

And Capri 1945 on the other side.

hey the patches were "added" to the veterans A-2 jacket , what's wrong with showing photos of them ..............
I don't see any difference in those than the other items , still part of a jacket right.........

I can see what the Daddy is getting at though. Rather than what is on 'Your' Jackets you tend to post lots of patches you have made. Why not start a topic just for patches? I would then post mine into it.
What the 'Plumb', my jacket and Big J show though are what we use as talismans or whatever but they are attached to our own jackets.
Got a pic of one of your jackets with a charm or patch on it? Post away :)
