Unit emblem[edit]

I have removed this image from the article (format altered for clarity):

This emblem is identified as the "Emblem of the 446th Bombardment Squadron (SAC)" on Wikimedia and its source is stated to be a scan of a USAF patch, although its author is identified as the United States Army Air Force[s]. This patch includes symbols for anti-aircraft artillery, signal, chemical corps, air corps and one I can't ID. This is entirely inappropriate for a SAC B-47 squadron. The 446th was activated in 1953 by SAC and the emblem identified as [[File:446th Missile Squadron - ACC - Emblem.png]] was approved for the squadron on 4 May 1956. Its previous emblem, used during WW II, is [[File:446th Bombardment Squadron - Emblem.png]]. With no reliable source for associating this patch with the squadron, I've removed it from the article. I'm putting it here in case someone finds a WP:RS. --Lineagegeek (talk) 15:32, 22 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
