Description: MR ALE GMAN 4” Patch Adak Airport, Adak Island Alaska~Airport Liaison Agent P106 ***Ships with tracking via USPS ABOUT: This Tulsa Patch was designed taking today’s airport terminal (on bottom) and adding the statue of an airman that is out in front of the Tulsa International Airport. From an article by GTRMedia Group: The statue at the main entrance to Tulsa International Airport is by Robert Weinman, USAAF, and is a 1961 gift from Georgia H. Lloyd Jones. The inscription reads, “During War II 16,000 young men of the United States and Allied Nations received flight training at Tulsa Municipal Airport and subsidiary fields. Of these, 14,000 were trained by the Spartan School of Aeronautics and 2,000 by the United States Army. In memory of these gallant gentlemen – and particularly of the scores who lost their lives in combat – this statue is gratefully dedicated.” The top of the patch represents when the USS Los Angeles aircraft carrier dirigible flew over Tulsa in 1928 after it left Lakehurst, New Jersey en route to Fort Worth, Texas. It did not land, but it was a huge spectacle for the citizens of the Oil Capital of the World. The skyline of Tulsa from this time period is also represented. This patch was designed by the same person who designed a series of aviation patches for the FBI's Civil Aviation Security Program (CASP) in the early 2000's.
