376th COMBAT INTELL - COMMIE THUMPERS
Although I'm not 100% sure that this patch can be attributed to the 376th SW DOR or any Recon Operations, I wanted to illustrate it here and maybe some former crew member can clear up the mystery. Clearly dating back to the Cold War days, it shows a "cat"(?) wearing a red scarf being choked by a large SAC hand. I picked this patch up outside Osan AB, Korea in September 1989 and unfortunately that's all I can tell you about it. Patch courtesy of MSgt Andreas Hunold's (GEAF Ret) personal collection.
