Pleiku - 633d Patch   Pleiku - 633d Flash
633d Patch and Flash! The SF flash is based on the lineage of Operation Safeside. And the 633d AB Wing patch, I found in a box of loose AF patches in a local military surplus shop. It's a contemparary patch based on the old 633d design. The crossbow is distinct to Pleiku, highlands, Montagnyards.
